Fails WP:NSPORTS AN WP:GNG Sportsfan 1234 ( talk) 04:27, 26 March 2022 (UTC) reply

Maybe not enough for WP:NSPORTS, but maybe enough for GNG? Rlink2 ( talk) 12:09, 26 March 2022 (UTC) reply
Tiger Tyson has a page on Olympedia. His place as a competitor and flagbearer for ANT at the 2018 Youth Olympics and this source should be enough for GNG.

Thanks @ Kbabej: but I see nothing in the extra sources provided that prove significant coverage enough for this person to pass WP:SIGCOV or WP:GNG. The Sail World reference is a passing mention, the Caribbean sailing reference just talks about him winning a race and qualifying for the Youth Olympics isn't up there with qualifying for the actual Olympics. There is no WP:NSPORT category for Kite surfing and WP:NOLYMPICS talks about being a medal winner. I'll still vote for delete.— NZFC (talk) (cont) 16:06, 30 March 2022 (UTC) reply
Fair enough @ NZFC! I appreciate you taking the time. Be well! -- Kbabej ( talk) 16:08, 30 March 2022 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. There are actually a lot more sources out there. The Antigua Observer reported on an accident he had in 2021 here and then his return to the sport here; Antiguanice Yachting Insider reported on the then-15-year-old subject and his bid for the Olympics in 2017 here; Sail World and Caribbean Sailing covered when he won the 2020 Caribbean Foiling Championships and was called a "rising star in the Caribbean kitefoiling world" here and here; Antigua Newsroom covered him at 15 years old when he made history in qualifying for the Youth Olympics here; and the coverage continues. I'm wondering if a WP:BEFORE was done on this? -- Kbabej ( talk) 15:26, 30 March 2022 (UTC) reply
