Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Chris Thieneman
This AfD nomination is flawed because it is not supported by proper due diligence.  Although the subject's pro football career is not properly sourced in the article per ,  and , Thieneman played in the Canadian Football League (CFL) for three seasons with the Saskatchewan Roughriders (1991) and Sacramento Gold Miners (1993&ndash;1994) (see http://www.cflapedia.com/Database/t.htm  CFLapedia, Players A&ndash;Z for quick confirmation).  Per , specifically the  section, "American football/''Canadian football figures are presumed notable if they . . . have appeared in at least one regular season or post season game in any one of the following professional leagues'': the Arena Football League, the ''Canadian Football League'', the National Football League, the third American Football League, the All-America Football Conference or the United States Football League, or any other top-level professional league."  emphasis mine  Thieneman played three seasons in the CFL, therefore he's presumed to be notable.  Game over.  I ask the nominator to withdraw the AfD nomination or that an administrator immediately close this AfD as a speedy keep
