Recreation of article deleted via consensus in September 2022. Coverage continues to lack significance with only additional sources being more WP:ROUTINE news reports of low-level racing competition. Fails WP:NOT as a database entry. Proposing deletion + creation protection. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 20:39, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Not seeing any evidence of non-WP:ROUTINE coverage. Correct me if I'm wrong. WP:BLP of a sportsperson who has only competed in minor series that is therefore more liable to have unchecked vandalism added without timely reversion.

Draftify - Clark is a USF Juniors champion and progressing through the Road to Indy ladder. Therefore he has a lot of Wikipedia:POTENTIAL and his article should be kept as a draft. Formula Downforce (talk) 10:16, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not opposed to this (this was my !vote in AfD No. 1), but I would still request salting and/or a requirement that the draft go through AfC before returning to mainspace. We also have to note the reply by Agtx to my !vote in that discussion, which is that articles typical are sent to draft for quality reasons, which I ultimately had no reply to. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 15:08, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure drafting would do much, this individual is still a student [1] until at least 2026, it would be a while before the career wins happen. Oaktree b (talk) 00:15, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Still TOOSOON, in the last year, not much more can be found than was mentioned in the last AfD [2], some coverage but not much. Oaktree b (talk) 00:13, 24 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Draftify - It may fail WP:NOT at the moment, however it also qualifies as having WP:POTENTIAL as Clark may be a more significant topic in the future as he a USF Juniors champion and has won races at the USF2000 level. SteeledDock541 (talk) 17:20, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
