- Couldn't really find anything about him online. Do you have any links to reliable sources about this kid that point to him being notable? -- Dammit_steve (talk) 15:28, 26 August 2017 (UTC)
- He has articles on the NorthamptonaChronicle, the basketball england website and the deng top 50 website. I just watched him at the deng top 50 all star game — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.155.167.70 (talk) 19:51, 26 August 2017 (UTC)
- It would be a good start to include links to those sources in his article for others to review them. This might help you in setting them up the right way -- Dammit_steve (talk) 20:29, 26 August 2017 (UTC)

- There doesn't seem to be anything on him on those sites, except a passing mention in the article on northamptonchron.co.uk where it only says how may points he scored. He might very well be the second comming of Zion Williamson but right now he does not meet WP:NBASKETBALL or WP:GNG. -- Dammit_steve (talk) 11:47, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
- Zion williamson doesnt fit the guidelines on WP:NBASKETBALL — Preceding unsigned comment added by BallMotivation (talk • contribs) 12:47, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
- True, but Willamson passes WP:GNG which Dominique unfortunately does not. -- Dammit_steve (talk) 14:18, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
- What would need to be included for this page to pass WP:GNG
- Reliable sources that show his notability, see here what counts as a reliable source Wikipedia:Verifiability#What_counts_as_a_reliable_source -- Dammit_steve (talk) 21:06, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
