Delete GNG requires multiple examples of Significant coverage to keep an article. We do not even have one example here.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:41, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep meets WP:SPORTBASIC with a medal at a major multi-national international sporting event. At worst, restore Lambert's redirect, per WP:PRESERVE and WP:ATD. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 15:35, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:SPORTBASIC - "are likely to meet", not "do meet", or even "are presumed to meet". BilledMammal (talk) 15:46, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete - I have to say "sports figures are likely to meet Wikipedia's basic standards of inclusion if they have participated in or achieved success in a major international competition at the highest level" seems like an incredibly low bar. Doesn't this mean every single olympian is likely notable? That can't be right. NickCT (talk) 16:05, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- This is why we have [Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Sports notability] because this is such a mess, and some editors consistently ignore the lack of any Sigcov in arguing to keep articles. You are right, that the argument above really does undercut the spirit of the RfC deciding that only Olympic medalists are to presumed notable. Still, that RfC is being better enforced than the one on high school notability ever has been.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:34, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - @Johnpacklambert: - Thanks for highlighting that. That's a monster of the conversation. I've also felt before that the high school rules need to be changed. NickCT (talk) 19:25, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Shooting at the 1948 Summer Olympics – Men's 50 metre rifle, prone. Not notable, but best to get to information where it can be found. Smartyllama (talk) 17:51, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
