Is World Yo-Yo Champion really a notable award? Suggest replace with a redirect to World Yo-Yo Contest. — RHaworth ( talk · contribs) 11:36, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

- Keep - I'm actually inclined to say keep. There's no specific sports set so we default to WP:SPORTBASIC or, if we don't want to discuss the "is it like a sport" then we could consider treating it like WP:NCHESS. Ultimately, it's clearest cut to just prove GNG. Newsweek, Hawaii news now, nextshark would seem sufficient. Nosebagbear ( talk) 14:44, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
- Keep but Improve - I agree with the previous voter that this guy has achieved basic notability thanks to some notice as yo-yo champion, though the article has no reliable citations to that effect. His music is non-notable and not (yet) worthy of being described in an encyclopedic article, though this one actually has a few weak references for his music. The article should be improved until it is the opposite of what it is now -- a description of his yo-yo championship with reliable sources and then a very brief mention of his decision to pursue music. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( Talk| Contribs) 15:15, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
