The character is an IBHOF referee class of 2015. [1] It appears that there is a substantial coverage of the character in G news [2], Google Books [3] as well as other sources online. Please undelete the page, so it can improved if it was 'poorly' written at the start. The admin who deleted the page Joe Decker is not responding. Thank you.

- I suggest you just write another article about him, there isn't anything preventing you from doing that as long as your version addresses the reasons why the page was deleted. The deleted article consisted of two sentences of unsourced prose followed by a short list of notable fights he's officiated at. The only source cited which wasn't a user edited wiki was [4] (which was an external link). If we are going to restore this it should be to draft space first so it could be brought up to acceptable standards there. Hut 8.5 18:20, 19 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Restored as closing admin Sorry to be late to the game here, I think there is substantial evidence that the editor here has provided that the subject does meet BASIC, some of which would not have been available at the time of the AFD, and I've restored it, I would appreciate the article being improved. Hut's right that this could have been simply written from scratch, but I understand the desire to see if there's material that could be repurposed. --joe deckertalk 18:34, 19 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Thank you. The article will be improved in the coming weeks with additional info and references as required.Parviziskender (talk) 23:49, 19 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
