The result was redirect to Military patrol at the 1924 Winter Olympics with the history underneath it, should someone find access to book sources with which to flesh this out. Star Mississippi 03:05, 25 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kądziołka not only did not win a medal (as part of a team) in the Olympics, his team did not even finish the competition they were in. So that really is not at all a sign of notability. It is also not a good sing when he is Polish, but the Polish Wikipedia article has one source, the same in English sports reference source used here. Olympedia has an entry with no text just sports tables. A search in google books came up with this name, but it was about a person born about 1920 who was being mentioned because as a schoolboy he was friends with someone who became an international leader. So this is not a good redirect target because most extant sourcing is about a totally different person who just happened to have the same name.

If nothing can be found on him then redirect to Military patrol at the 1924 Winter Olympics per WP:ATD, WP:PRESERVE, WP:R#KEEP and WP:CHEAP. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 12:55, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- What about the fact that there is another person with the same name that is mentioned more often in sources?John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:12, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Military patrol at the 1924 Winter Olympics. Doesn't look to pass WP:NBASIC or WP:GNG. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:10, 17 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Assuming participating in Olympics is not sufficient for automatic notability, there's next to nothing about him in the accessible Polish sources. Possibly something in non-digitized stuff. At least I can confirm this is not a hoax, assuming the mention of him in 2006 book is based on RS (I can only see a snippet that does mention he was part of the Polish team that withdraw from that Olympic "patrol" comptetition): [1]. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 10:12, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: He was obviously a national athlete. The fact there are few digital references to him yet, doesn’t mean there aren’t many published written ones. Wikipedia is want to forget that Books still exist. If the project had deleted every unreferenced stub in its early days, half the best pages would never have been written. Who knows how this page may be expanded in the future - give it a chance. Giano (talk) 14:57, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
