Lynn Blau

Unnotable tennis player. Being ranked 1273 in the world doesn't constitute notability. She has never a qualified for a major tournament by her own rights. Tavix (talk) 19:44, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, unless there's something I'm completely missing about tennis rankings, I agree with the nominator. --Bobak (talk) 20:00, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
~~Speedy~~ Delete, per above, fails WP:ATHLETE. The Rolling Camel (talk) 21:03, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think you need to learn what A7 really is: "An article about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant. This is distinct from questions of verifiability and reliability of sources, and is a lower standard than notability." The article specifically states why she is "notable", I am simply questioning that claim and taking it here to sort it out. Tavix (talk) 21:30, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
