Delete There were actually no bronze etc. medals given out at the Olympics until 1904. The 1896 and 1900 awards were not so designated, it is a later attempt to retcon the Olympics into their later form that causes such claims. However even if we ignore that problem, we need significant sourcing to justify any article, and that is lacking here.

Keep I feel he passes GNG with these sources, I've added them to the article and expanded it a little bit. He seems to have been better known for his work in the medical field and with the Dutch Red Cross than for his Olympic appearance.

Keep His Olympic participation was not at all notable, but his medical one was. This shows exactly why people should not create articles without fully investigating a person.
