An IP editor has twice tried to get this article deleted via PROD. Looking into this myself, I was unable to find any decent coverage in newspapers for Dean Walker, despite the fact that he played a game in the 4th tier of English football. I also searched his name in conjunction with 'Burnley' and 'Scunthorpe' and found nothing other than one trivial mention in the Newcastle Evening Chronicle - this can be found as the second result in this search. No evidence of passing WP:SPORTBASIC from that alone. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 19:35, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
