We have decided that people are no longer default notable only for participating in the olympics, only for medaling. I did a comprehensive search of google, google books, google scholar, google news and goolge news archive to try and find additional sources and found nothing. The one source we have is the type of hyper inclusive source that does not show notability. I was not able to find any coverage of any competition beyond his one appearance in the Olympics. We do not have anything showing that he is notable. John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:25, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for lack of notability. I had no better results trying to find sources than JPL did. With the presumption of notability for competing in the Olympics no longer applicable, and lacking any biographical information on Chennaux, this should not be an article. Article title can be made a redirect to Shooting at the 1960 Summer Olympics – Men's trap. Schazjmd (talk) 17:14, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Shooting at the 1960 Summer Olympics – Men's trap#Results. Best, GPL93 (talk) 01:39, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or redirect per nom and Schazjmd. Per Shooting at the 1960 Summer Olympics – Men's trap, Chennaux did not finish among the top 36 competitors and thus did not even advance to the main competition. Cbl62 (talk) 13:21, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Is there a website that contains old, "Luxembourgian" newspaper archives? BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:44, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per the above. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 18:05, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect per all above. In the future, I would encourage editors to just be bold and redirect these kinds of pages when notability is clearly not met following a WP:BEFORE search rather than creating a bunch of AfDs. Smartyllama (talk) 19:04, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
