Fails WP:Notability. The person is not notable itself and most likely fails WP:NATH and he was not even in top 8 in Commonwealth as this is the minimum criteria for inclusion. Harshil ^{want to talk?} 10:44, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

England international and National champion
Was the article actually read before a nomination for deletion was made, he is an international (i.e selected by England to represent his country) and a three times NATIONAL CHAMPION. How is that not notable? Racingmanager (talk) 10:52, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

That is not written in the article. Most of the sources are official sources which doesn't meets WP:GNG and refer to WP:NATH before creating article. - Harshil ^{want to talk?} 12:10, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It does mention National champion in the article. Quote AAA National champion on three occasions. This is the UK's foremost championship. Racingmanager (talk) 16:37, 2 August 2019 (UTC) Keep. Participant of 1966 British Empire and Commonwealth Games so clearly meets relevance criteria. Florentyna (talk) 19:12, 2 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Three time medallist at the AAAs and national record holder is surely more than enough for inclusion. --Michig (talk) 07:22, 3 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, meets WP:NSPORTS for reasons given above, and this citation that was in the article before nomination shows that he came 6th in commonwealth games competition, so in top 8. Coolabahapple (talk) 01:38, 4 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as all above. Clearly meets WP:ATHLETE. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:32, 7 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Lacks significant coverage and so it fails the GNG. There is no narrative beyond a couple of brief notes and there appears to be no potential for any worthwhile expansion. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:00, 8 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
