Does not meet WP:NHOCKEY. He has been drafted to the NHL but only in the second round. If he plays in the NHL then he should be included, but until then this is a case of WP:NotJustYet. Tchaliburton ( talk) 04:06, 29 June 2014 (UTC) reply

• Keep – Nomination fails WP:BEFORE. While this high second round draft pick falls just short of the criteria of NHOCKEY, the subject does however pass WP:GNG as evidenced by the many independent and reliable sources within the article, and the many more reliable sources which can be easily found on-line.

• Delete. Dolovis, if you think even one of those sources is good enough, then you really should be banned from creating articles. Every single one of the sources is a trivial mention. Fails NHOCKEY and fails GNG. Reso lute 15:40, 29 June 2014 (UTC) reply

• Delete Fails to meet WP:GNG or WP:NHOCKEY. - DJSasso ( talk) 12:24, 30 June 2014 (UTC) reply
• Keep. Appears to meet the GNG. [1] Mice never shop ( talk) 00:11, 1 July 2014 (UTC) reply
  • You are aware that nearly every link on the front page of that search is either a blog or a trivial mention? Hell, the very first one comes from a site with a reputation for plagiarism. Reso lute 14:30, 1 July 2014 (UTC) reply
    • GoogleNews shows for four pages of articles for “Dominik Mašín”(about 418 results). [2] For “Dominik Masin” there are many more (about 6,470 results) [3]. Very likely a player in a foreign language league is going to have even more non-English sources. I trust you took the effort to search for sources in the languages of the player in question?

• Yes, I am sure that Resolute read all the newspapers in not only Swedish and Dutch and German and Latvian but also reviewed the Estonian, Russian and Hungarian and especially the Czech and Finnish electronic resources as well as the newspaper articles archived in the Royal Library in Copenhagen and was very surprised to discover, after all this, that there were in fact no multiple, reliable, independent, non-trivial, secondary sources on this person. Except that research at THAT level is not supposed to be his job, it is supposed to be the job of the person who wrote the article in the first place as well as, at this point, the job of anyone trying to convince the rest of us that the article should be kept. I do not think that the due diligence burden is supposed to fall entirely on those voting on or nominating to delete an article once a basic search in English has turned up absolutely nothing. Googletranslate aside, there are limits on what you or others supporting these kinds of articles can legitimately expect from those who have looked and found no viable evidence of their notability. Expecting someone (not the original author, someone else) to comb through 6,000 google hits hoping to find 2 in Lithuanian to add to this article strikes me as an absurd and backward expectation.

• Delete Dolovis has a chronic history of creating these kinds of stub articles on non-notable sports people who pass the guidelines in NSPORTS but fail the final test of GNG and he's been doing it for at least three years so far. He's even been brought up at WP:ANI for it. GNG supersedes NSPORTS and NHOCKEY and NBASEBALL, etc. This article is just attempt to add to his roster of nearly 6,000 (no joke: SIX THOUSAND!) such articles, and it has no better sources than any of the rest. It, too, should be deleted. KDS4444 ^Talk 04:25, 2 July 2014 (UTC) reply

  It's amusing that he ran to ARS in the hopes that somebody else will do his legwork for him. Though this is at least a nice departure from the last round where he lied in numeorus AFDs by claiming that sources existed while never once demonstrating the existence of one.

• Delete. Can be re-created if/when he ever meets GNG/NHOCKEY. Patken4 ( talk) 18:53, 3 July 2014 (UTC) reply
