Non-notable masters athlete who fails to meet WP:GNG. All of the sources on the article are just routine result lists. A search has not produced any "significant coverage" as required by WP:N. DJSasso ( talk) 17:05, 19 January 2017 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Fails WP:GNG. There must be reliable sources about the subject, and not just passing mentions, in order to satisfy notability. SW3 5DL ( talk) 19:39, 20 January 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. By common sense measures, she is a notable athlete for accomplishments at her age and has recently achieved some level of fame through a nytimes article covering Masters events. Comprehensive list of achievements is a valuable resource. 140.247.87.87 ( talk) 14:58, 23 January 2017 (UTC) reply
Can you provide a link to said article? While there is one in the ([ [1]], I believe she is only mentioned in one sentence, which doesn't qualify on its own. I'm honestly quite shocked that she doesn't have more coverage, but based on the searches I have done, it does seem hard to argue that she doesn't meet WP:GNG- MATThematical ( talk) 03:41, 27 January 2017 (UTC) reply
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Weak delete: I'm a bit shocked that this person does not meet WP:GNG, but given the sports person is from an English Speaking country, my suspission is that extensive articles do not exist for this person, given that we can't find them in basic internet searches. If talk can produce the forementioned NY times article I would change my mind. But until then its a delete for me. MATThematical ( talk) 06:52, 29 January 2017 (UTC) reply
