Sportsman who does not pass

WP:NOLY, as he did not win any olympic medals. I could find no significant coverage of him, indeed the only info I could find at all was that he finished dead last in the heat. Devonian Wombat (talk) 22:01, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply

Delete we have no significant sources that provide coverage. He did nothing that would meet notability guidelines. There is no good reason to redirect the article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:03, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That wasn't me, just for the record, it was Devonian Wombat. Which is not to say I disagree with it at all, but it wasn't my statement originally. Bearcat (talk) 16:18, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per above. We don't have enough sourcing here to support a standalone article — the old consensus that non-medalling Olympic athletes are automatically notable regardless of sourceability problems has been deprecated, and their notability now depends more strongly on actually getting them over
WP:GNG on the sourcing than it used to — but since he is named in the target article, there's value in retaining the redirect so that somebody who does look for information about him will land somewhere relevant. Bearcat (talk) 16:18, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply
