Keep It does not fail WP:GNG, the person is twice an Asian Champion, which is pretty significant bearing in mind that he is a champion of an entire continent within his sport. He also competed in THREE Commonwealth Games and the World Championships. (Furthermore it is a stub). The sources include the Commonwealth Games Federation profile, the Brunei Darussalam National Olympic Council and the BBC. I cannot understand why the article has been proposed for deletion.

Delete we do not have indepdent, 3rd party sources just souces that are basically the awards granters themselves recognizing the award. Awards need to be sourced to sources other than the granting organization themselves.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:14, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The BBC source lists him in a list of players and scores - not WP:SIGCOV. No other source meets WP:GNG either. BilledMammal (talk) 01:30, 28 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I can't find any instances of clear cut significant coverage about him. This article is the closest that I could find but it's barely more than a quick quote from him and is insufficient to build a biography from on its own. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate sportsperson database. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 11:08, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
