Fails WP:NBAD and WP:GNG as the only claim to notability is the participation at the World Championships which is not enough. Moreover, can't seem to find any credible source to establish notability. zoglophie 20:10, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment If this is deleted, Lesley Harris (netball) should be moved to this page. A redirect from Lesley Harris (badminton) could also go to the page most useful to those looking for her, 1977 IBF World Championships – Women's singles. I thought when I created it being in a world chamionships was enough, but I haven't found anything to be able to dispute the comments above. Boleyn (talk) 08:17, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, BeanieFan11 (talk) 21:42, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. To be fair, simply being present as a competitor in a world championship was considered an automatic inclusion freebie in and of itself at the time this page was created — but sports notability standards have changed since then, so now she would have to be shown to pass WP:GNG. But the only footnote here glancingly acknowledges her existence while failing to be about her in any non-trivial way, which isn't enough. Bearcat (talk) 15:53, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete As noted, the sports notability guidelines have been modified and this article does not appear to qualify under GNG anymore. It should be deleted. Go4thProsper (talk) 10:06, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
