Keep, no valid deletion rationale. Geschichte (talk) 18:36, 7 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment FYI Geschichte lack of evidence of notability is a perfectly valid deletion rationale. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 16:51, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, it is not, because nominators are obliged to both explain why they believe the notability is lacking, state which guidelines the subject fail, and preferably show that they have done a WP:BEFORE, in order to be taken seriously. Geschichte (talk) 13:05, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I did a quick search when I first nominated but it was too quick; this athlete has some mild coverage (quoted in a few newspapers with a short blurb about who he is, can't find full articles just about him). On a side note, please watch the tone. Some of your responses have read a little condescending to me. toobigtokale (talk) 14:26, 10 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Subject is not notable separately from the team. A redirect to the team article may, or may not, be useful. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 16:51, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Note. Subject passes WP:NOLYMPICS as a Paralympic medalist. BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:30, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No GNG coverage has been found so far, so the subject does not meet NSPORT.

COMMENT: 2008 World Wheelchair Curling Championship links to (brief, minimally documented) articles on every contender from every country. It does not, seemingly, link to pages for the individual national teams. Is the proposal to delete every one of these articles? The others are very similar to this one in notability. Llajwa (talk) 16:55, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We'd have to investigate each athlete by searching for news coverage; information on the article alone is not sufficient.

For this article (Kim Myung-jin), here are the Korean sources I can find with non-trivial coverage: [1][2]

That's it. He could have possibly been covered on TV, but this is all I can find in written form with a reasonable amount of effort. toobigtokale (talk) 19:48, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
