confident that such information would be available from independent sources). IIHF qualifies nations for world championships, which may provide an objective standard for top hockey playing countries (i.e. top leagues”), however using IIHF standings as a guide will see nations come and go as top competitors depending on the years being considered (and how wide the net is thrown); on the other hand, it has been often argued that “top league” refers to the top league within a given country. This understanding of the term is given more weight when one looks at Criteria #2 which reads “Played one or more games in an amateur league considered, through lack of a professional league, the highest level of competition extant”. If such is the understanding of the term (and I am not saying I am an adherent of such a view) then all nations with an organized hockey program, professional or not, would qualify to have a “top league”.

leagues. There may be other sources we can look at to verify these distinctions. One might simply follow the standards set by HockeyDB (Major League and European Elite = “top professional league”; Minor Professional = "fully professional minor league"; and European Non-Elite, Senior Amateur, Major Junior, and College/University = "lower minor league". I understand that such a solution is too simplistic, and I am using it as an example only to demonstrate that objective sources exist, with my point being that we need to establish an objective and verifiable starting point towards creating our definitive list.

wanted to generate an exhaustive list of leagues for each item. If the list is exhaustive, then I don't see a need to worry about if a league is a top professional league or not; the only thing that matters is that playing for all of the leagues under the "one game" criterion is an accurate predictor of meeting the notability standard, that playing for all of the leagues under the "100 games" criterion is an accurate predictor of meeting the notability standard, and so forth. The descriptions "top professional", "amateur", and "fully professional minor" aren't necessary.

presumably be notable, at least based on the intent of the criteria. I'm not aware of any actual players who would meet the criteria if it included Division I independents but currently don't, but it's certainly possible an Arizona State player will be an All-American this year, in which case I'd presume the intent is for them to be notable. but the way it's written, they're not. We should either rewrite the rule to simply say NCAA Division I, or, at the very least, add NCAA Division I independents to the list.

in both the CHL and AHL, so the farm teams for the NHL/WHA franchises were in both leagues. Regardless, as Resolute states, we aren't trying to figure out which league was the farm league for the NHL/WHA in this period. We need to figure out if the players who never advanced past the CHL are notable and are covered in sources. It seems the CHL clubs were generally in larger cities, but they were also non-traditional cities to host hockey, particularly in this time period.
32: 2436:?" The answer is no, not all players are likely to meet GNG based solely on that qualification. It does not, however, mean that a player on an Allan Cup-winning team will definitely fail to meet GNG on their own RS coverage, especially when the trophy generated more coverage in the past than it does now. In that case, digging into the archives would probably be the only sources for those players. 91: 1268:(and it seems most of us agree with that, both then and now). I know the criteria has evolved a bit since then, but it is similar to what Ravenswing originally proposed. I can't find where we discussed putting criteria to specific leagues as we are now, but I know we have had the discussions many times before. I may even proposed it at some point. 2078:
while ostensibly longer-running, have gone through numerous changes in format and composition over the years, and bear little resemblance to the competitions contested many, many years ago. That said, the British leagues seem to fit well in the "Lower-level minor leagues" section. I would neither bump them up nor remove them from it. --
1348:(renamed the Central Hockey League with the 1968–69 season). To rank this league as a “lower level league” is ludicrous. This fully professional league was owned by the NHL, and the teams in this league were the top farm teams of the NHL clubs. In its day its players were of a calibre above those who played in the AHL or IHL. 1186:
only about how likely a player is to get multiple news stories about them in multiple papers in multiple locations. As with all of NHOCKEY, its about 99.999% of players that meet that specific criteria should be able to meet GNG. Which is very clearly not the case with the hundreds of stubs you litter the wiki with. -
1762:. And I don't say that as a judgement on the quality of the game, but on the amount of media coverage, the most minor minor men's hockey league generates more coverage than the women's leagues did. For some of those teams you might have a hard time finding people in those cities that knew they had a team. - 1267:
about notability. First, there are still a few of us from the first discussion about this still around from almost seven years ago, so congrats to those still here. Second, it looks like even then we questioned why 100 games/three seasons was being considered as the minimum requirement for the ECHL
1217:
Yeah, sorry, Dolovis, but you've spent so much time wikilawyering and outright lying that pretty much any advocacy you'd deliver is suspect. Claiming that this list is suspect because I created it, while claiming that the NHOCKEY list (which I likewise created) is good and virtuous? Errr ... no: if
1185:
Dolovis, there are no independent sources which rank how much press coverage individual players in individual leagues get. This is the problem. You continually confuse the level of the league (ie quality of play, attendance, salary etc) with the level of coverage its players get in the media. This is
1012:
So what is it, Dolovis? On the one hand, you want a horde of editors to come in before you'll sign off on it? On the other, you screech about people not having the "expert knowledge" to pull this off? I'd invite you to make up your mind, but that presumes we need your approval to go forward, which

containing a list of ice hockey leagues sorted by level of play is incomplete and subjective. While I agree that a list of ice hockey league's could be useful for the purpose of establishing a presumption pf notability (I suggested the idea about three years ago, only to be rebuffed by the Ice Hockey
305:
I should have clarified that categorization can be eliminated where the other criteria are the same. Thus I was mistaken in my example: items 1 and 2 can be combined, while item 3 would continue to have a different requirement on the number of games. Perhaps I misunderstood your intent: I thought you
1937:
Those leagues generate tremendous press coverage, and some of their teams have average attendance greater than the capacity of all four NWHL venues combined. Is it safe to say that the NWHL has a way to go to reach that level, especially since it's played all of two games to date? If so, consider:
1801:
Because ECAC and Hockey East are also men's leagues. I suggest clarifying that actually now that you mention it as it was almost certainly intended to only mean the men's leagues. And remember this list isn't about being worthy of note, its just to help decide likely levels of coverage for people in

correctly, it tells us what minor league teams that the NHL teams used to send their "prospects" and other players to (you can change the year in the address link to another year to view that years listing). I also have a Sporting News Hockey Guide from 1976 and at that time there were 6 franchises
1558:
Yes and no. CHL teams (the 1960s-1984 version) were affiliated with NHL parents at various points as Ravenswing notes. It is debatable if it could be called an equivalent to the AHL, however. Regardless, we still require evidence that we can presume notability for players who appeared in this CHL

Your reply only displays your ignorance of hockey history. I suggest that you read a few more books and spend some time researching through old newspaper articles to acquire at least a better than superficial knowledge of hockey history before you try to lead a discussion where your knowledge of the

Once again, notability on Knowledge (XXG) is defined by coverage in reliable sources. League rankings mean squat as it relates to coverage of individual players. If you can demonstrate that enough reliable source coverage exists such that we can presume a player who appeared in a certain league (or

Given that this is a busy holiday weekend, I simply do not have the time to put together right now (quests have arrived) an alternate proposal of what leagues might fit the definitions of “top professional league”, “highest level of competition extant”, “fully professional minor leagues”, and “lower

The descriptions aren't needed anymore, since a complete list of leagues is being provided for each standard, and I think having them will result in editors continuing (as they do today) to argue about whether or not a league is fully professional, rather than discussing if players in a given league
456:
The hockey-specific notability guideline can remind readers that the criteria are based on the presumption of appropriate coverage and not the status of the league. There are currently a few editors who question why players for professional leagues are automatically assumed to meet Knowledge (XXG)'s
441:
The problem is that people who know nothing about the sport will start questioning why amateur teams are listed with professional teams. On this page we probably don't need to mention if the teams are amateur or professional. But on the NHOCKEY page I think we most definitely need to have a criteria
289:
Sorry, but that's just a backhanded way to disenfranchise any non 'highest level' league, and the consensus hasn't been there for that. There's nothing about the concept of presumptive notability that's fractured by stating that a player in X League is almost certainly notable, a player in Y League

can be removed (for example, criteria 1 to 3 can be collapsed into one: "Played one or more games in the following leagues: ..."). This will save on arguing about the classification, which is after all just an indirect indicator: the key question is whether or not playing in the league is a reliable
2394:
Certainly not based on that little obituary from a website of unknown provenance as a reliable source. But if you're asking whether having played for an Allen Cup-winning team qualifies under NHOCKEY, no. Playing for a Memorial Cup or Frozen Four winner, something that generates a great deal more

The ephemeral nature of the British leagues is irrelevant in determining the notability of the players who have competed in them. I have studied British hockey extensively and the sport has gone through many "boom and bust" periods as interest has waxed and waned. The Norwegian and Italian leagues,
1850:
Yeah. It is a bit of a shame, but even in Calgary, the Inferno usually only generate the odd special interest story in the papers. I've been to their games, and the attendance is similar to the local AJHL teams on the best days. Though some of the relevant SBN blogs (representing Calgary, Montreal

presumptively notable. In the IHL of the 90s or the WHL of the 60s, with a caliber of play high enough that people were seriously asking whether those leagues could challenge the NHL, that's not unreasonable. In the AHL of the last few decades, in which almost every player was under contract to a

Actually that would display your ignorance of hockey history. The league was completely independent of the NHL. However, some of the teams were owned by NHL teams. But that is semantics because during the six team years all the teams were owned by NHL teams so you could technically say it was owned

proposal. This has been needed for some time recently due to far to much wikilawyering and attempts at end runs around the policy by Dolovis. So because some editors can't seem learn to abide by consensus and policy when they disagree with it we thus need to tighten it up to avoid ambiguity and cut
1200:
How about using the player wiki articles to assess the presumed notability the league infers upon its players? If a page is created for a player based upon the current presumed notability criteria and the page is later deleted due to an inability to meet GNG then the league classification needs to

on which the list will be based. NHOCKEY uses the terms “top professional league” (existing or defunct), “highest level of competition extant”, “fully professional minor league”, and “lower minor league”; and it is those terms which need to be objectively defined before we start to build a list.
588:
The problem is that this list will never be more than an essay. As such the criteria itself has to be understandable on its own as if this list didn't exist. Without the descriptions you lose that. The soccer one for example clearly indicates it needs to be fully professional to pass. Thier list is
2150:
The IIHF, being one of those organizations that love to claim to speak for all of their sport (and which in the IIHF's case, historically, has had it really pissed off by the NHL's insouciant independence), signs up damn near any country that has so much as a skating rink, a dozen players, and the

Ice hockey receives little to almost no media coverage in the UK, and its leagues tend to be ephemeral. By contrast, the Norwegian and Italian top leagues are 80 and 90 years old respectively. Ice hockey is Norway's second most popular team sport, and the Norwegian team consistently plays at the

You know as well as anyone else that these criteria are based on at what point we can expect non-trivial coverage in multiple reliable sources to exist. I'll admit that the current headers for the three levels are very poor since notability is about sourcing rather than assumed level of play. We

100 games in this league will have sources, then it should be easy for you to go out and prove it by finding sources for a large number of players who played 100 games in that league. It should be even easier for you than the Mestis since its an English league. Such evidence for those leagues that
1082:
One would think that the easiest term to define would be “fully professional minor league” (either the league is “fully professional or its not), leaving the remaining minor leagues as the “lower minor leagues”, however even this term, which can/should be determined objectively, is being argued on
1078:
Whether or not you agree with HockeyDB is not the issue. My point is that HockeyDB's list is independent and can be utilized objectively. There are other independent sources that might also be used to build the NHOCKEY list (such as hockey leagues by average salary or by attendance levels, as I am
1067:
This list is intended to be inclusive of all the existing and defunct hockey leagues world-wide, which is quite an undertaking, which is why NHOCKEY chose to use the words “such as” followed by examples. Ravenwing's list hopes to add to such examples, but to do so we must first form a consensus to
839:
Most tweaks made, with the exception of this one; I'm not yet sold that the Champions League makeup is a definitive sign of league quality, as opposed to politics -- one would think, for instance, that the inclusion of the top Slovakian clubs would be a no-brainer. Any notion why we're not seeing
627:
I do agree that Criteria #1 and #2 describe the same level, but when originally drafting them, I split them out because of the traditional standard of NSPORTS: that of playing in a "fully professional" league. Hockey, by contrast, has a history of amateur leagues that nonetheless were the highest
2410:
Based solely on that "website of unknown provenance as an RS", no; I'm fairly sure I know the original source for the obit. My question was more about whether being on an Allen Cup-winning team, both years that they won the cup -- or, indeed, all the information on that page, assuming it could be

Likewise in proclaiming the HockeyDB an "independent" and "objective" list. You know, don't you, that HockeyDB's assessment = Ralph Slate's assessment, right? Now we certainly rely heavily on Ralph's indefatigable work, but when all is said and done, he's a hockey fan from western Massachusetts
1124:
The only reason you want more leagues listed at the higher levels is so that you can continue to be lazy and create sub-stubs using the pathetically low "played 100 games" criteria rather than by actually researching to see if such players are notable. The end result is that you litter Knowledge
2003:
It's not, and they don't; this is one of those leagues where third- and fourth-liners from the NA mid-minors and bottom-rung college hockey programs turn into stars. We don't accord presumptive notability to the various British leagues, and those players have to explicitly meet the GNG. (Some I
471:
I understand what you are saying, and in an ideal world that would be great, but we both know that people will still question it over and over. So by leaving it worded as is and then adding in the new list we remove the questions. By simply merging it we add more questioning and thus more wasted
422:
I think the descriptions will still lead to superfluous discussion; editors should not be evaluating if a league is fully professional, but whether or not a player who has met the participation level (or other criteria) for a given league is likely to have the degree of coverage required to meet
320:
Not really true, we have 3 different levels in NHOCKEY that leagues must meet. There are the leagues that meet the 1 game situation, leagues that meet the 100 game situation, and games that only get major honor players. The descriptions are a bit off, they should probably just be labeled for the

Beyond that, ice hockey is an obscure and little noted sport in Britain. For instance, I follow the BBC sports site for soccer coverage. It has top level sections on soccer, Formula 1, rugby union, cricket, tennis, golf, track & field and even cycling. It has smaller sections on American
151:
Are we sure about the Swiss National League being ranked where it is? If we are talking about equivalents, it seems strange that we have a group of peers competing at the Spengler Cup (with the Swiss team often winning), but ranking them so low in this somewhat arbitrary tiering of notability.
2257:
The rationale behind shifting to explicitly naming leagues was this: simplicity and trusting to the common sense of editors served us poorly. We went through all too many revisions to demonstrate that there wasn't any general guideline impervious to being twisted, distorted or flouted to suit
2039:
And we don't give presumptive notability to all their players. Just their stars. Large numbers of NHL players have played in these leagues, granted those players would get in through their NHL time. Perhaps I am skewed on the league since XM radio covers their games and their teams and players

738:
My only two cents to throw in here would be regarding the distinction between "fully professional" and "lower minor" - while the ECHL and the Central Hockey League certainly are not the same caliber of play (or coverage) as the AHL, they are in fact "fully professional" - all three leagues are
2241:
Wouldn't it be simpler if we restated the NCAA criteria to just say "men's NCAA Division I" rather than listing all the conferences? The other problem is that a player who played at an independent Division I school but was a first or second team All-American or Top 10 career goal scorer would

To quote myself from that AfD: "imply having played for a national team does not meet NHOCKEY and never has; even for teams from highly notable hockey nations such as Canada, such teams often play long exhibition schedules with greatly varying rosters. The applicable criterion of NHOCKEY only

I wouldn't say that the level of coverage accorded to women's leagues would even be enough for criterion #4. Even in hockey-mad Boston, with strong women's collegiate programs going back decades, the only time there's any media coverage at all (beyond a cursory paragraph or two of WP:ROUTINE

of their histories; the majority weren't. Placing the CPHL/CHL on a lower tier is not an "error" -- it involved setting a higher standard than you like, and your categorization of doing so as "ludicrous" just goes to highlight your tendency to disparage any position with which you disagree.

do was add the Ukrainian league, which is only a couple years old and is marred by considerable instability: having several teams fold from last year, including the league champions, doesn't bode well. The question I have now is whether we can sign off on this and add the link to NHOCKEY?
1639:
NHL team, that's not unreasonable. In the CHL of the 60s and 70s, where -- using Patken's link for a guide -- even teams that had CHL teams as sole affiliates didn't keep more than 8-10 players under contract, and the AHL clubs used CHL teams as farm teams of their own -- it would be.
2040:
whereas there is no coverage for Italy for example. Criteria #4 was intended to grab those star players from the low level leagues that would otherwise be dismissed just because of the league they were in. Ages of the leagues are irrelevant really. Oh and the BBC does cover ice hockey
407:
I would keep the descriptions, and just link to the list in place of the examples. That way the only change to the criteria is that we list the examples differently now and prevents the likelihood of arguing about a league not being professional like Ravenswing mentions below.
495:-- to which I'm sure damn near everyone would object -- or you have a draconian list which disqualifies the minors, major junior or the collegiate leagues altogether, to which a great many people would object (myself included). In either case, consensus wouldn't be reached. 526:
We can't. FOOTY's league listing is an essay, not an official guideline, and I think that's what we need to have here. The NSPORTS criteria generally are pretty subjective, but this list is quite subjective, and an essay is about the level we can get away with declaring.

I also would agree that the Swiss league is too low. Its at least on par, and arguably better, than the DEL. And if you factor in that many of the players in the league have played in the NHL or were notable in lower leagues, it should be enough to move it up.

Honestly Dolovis, I doubt the Mestis generates the coverage to warrant the presumption we give it. Since you are also questioning whether the Mestis generates enough coverage, should I take your comment as a proposal to drop it to the third tier?

I think there should be some discussion of the available sources covering the players in each league, in order to demonstrate that meeting the criterion in each case is a reliable predictor of meeting Knowledge (XXG)'s standards for inclusion.

Yes, I didn't enumerate all the levels, as I assumed it was understood the same levels as now would be preserved. I'm not sure where you ended up; do you agree that there can be three items for each of the three levels, as follows:

It is out of place among the level 2 leagues as the rest of the American leagues in that section were unquestionably the highest level of minor professional hockey. The ECHL is not. 1806:.
