Fails WP:GNG. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 01:55, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Smartyllama they fail GNG, which overrides any sort of sport specific criterion. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 12:49, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No it doesn't. Otherwise we wouldn't have the sport criteria. Subjects need to pass either the GNG or the subject-specific criteria. Smartyllama (talk) 18:15, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete fails GNG. GNG overrides sports guidelines. Sports guidelines only say the person may be notable, but if you can't muster even a semblance of coverage, they clearly are not notable. Not everyone who participated in tug of war at the Olympics merits an article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:21, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
OK, if "WP:GNG overrides sports guidelines," then why do we have sports guidelines? They certainly are not explanatory of WP:GNG. -The Gnome (talk) 09:34, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Keep as per WP:NGYMNAST, 'competed at the Summer Olympics or World Championships.' The reference to the article establishes that. There is therefore no need to pass WP:GNG. The article needs more references, but that is WP:SOFIXIT. Ross-c (talk) 05:53, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
