Seriously, does not meet WP:GNG, all the refs contain just mentions of her name, if that (unless I'm missing some obscure sports notability for ten-pin bowlers that is). CaptainScreebo ^Parley! 01:06, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- Fails WP:GNG. I have found only listings of this individual's name in world ranking tournaments -- but no significant coverage. Although ten-pin bowling is not an obscure sport, WP does not appear to have any specific notability guidelines built by consensus, as do most other major sports. Therefore, Gales' best finish of 9th in the 2009 world masters ranking is not an automatic qualifier for notability. I see that a previous version of this article as Lorraine Gales was prodded for the same WP:BLP issues in 2011 and this same SPA/COI creator eventually requested deletion. This new article does not improve on any of the old issues. — CactusWriter ^(talk) 16:47, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
