Fails both WP:GNG and WP:SPORTBASIC #5. This is a stub that I created when we presumed notability for those who played in the NFL. The presumption was revoked by community-wide consensus, and I have searched extensively for SIGCOV without success. A redirect to 1929 Minneapolis Red Jackets season may be appropriate as an alternative to deletion. Cbl62 (talk) 21:45, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note there are a couple sources referring to a "George Chrape" playing for Minneapolis in 1929. This may or may not be the same person but no SIGCOV for "George Chrape" either. Cbl62 (talk) 21:45, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • There's a possibility he may be covered in the book Mill City Scrum: The History of Minnesota's First Team in the National Football League. I remember another user mentioning last year that there was a 70 word bio for one of the team's one-game NFL players, whereas he played nine. BeanieFan11 (talk) 21:57, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's possible, but "chrape" is an unusual name, which allowed me to do very broad searches, and I was unable to come up with anything of substance. If my redirect suggestion is followed, the redirect could be reconsidered at a later date if more sourcing turns up. Cbl62 (talk) 22:34, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
