Pseudo-biography that does not appear to meet WP:BIO or WP:NSPORT. Won no awards, was not in the Olympics or World Cup or any such thing. Being ranked 25th doesn't seem like a big deal; do the other 24 have articles? Only windsurfer articles I can find are medalists or record holders. All refs for Clancy are obituaries. Even tributes people have made for him basically say he liked to have fun and go on holiday with his family.[1] Sucks that he died before he could accomplish anything, but dying doesn't automatically mean he's notable enough for an article.

- Delete - Fails Bio and Sports notability. Shame he died young but that does not qualify him for an article. Snappy (talk) 00:58, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
