This biography article lacks in-depth sources to establish notability. The only citation fails verification so essentially the article is un-referenced. After searching, found a few websites with a passing mention, but unable to verify facts in the article. Created on 10 November 2006.}} JoeNMLC ( talk) 00:51, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

- Delete: No coverage found at all for this bowler, even in Canadian sources. Oaktree b ( talk) 01:51, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: Looking at the source cited in the article, it does confirm that she finished 21st in the event listed and is labeled with a Canadian nationality. There aren’t many facts in the article, so I won’t make an argument it should be kept, but there’s nothing here that isn’t at least included in the source.

- While I did find other sources (and even a page giving zodiac information to hide her exact birthday), I didn't find anything covering her in any depth. She bowled for the Canadian youth league in 2003 and 2004; qualifying scores in the 2006 Cup; that she had also bowled in the 2005 Cup, also alongside Michael Schmidt; that her rank in 2005 was 31, so she moved up 10 places, good on her; and that there are more listings on reddit for Wikipedia AfD than I'd ever cared to wonder about.
- On the plus side, I did find a single actual news article: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/schmidt-finishes-third-at-bowling-world-cup/article20416705/
- But I didn't find anything to show notability. Per the sports criterion, I think the coverage I found falls under "trivial".
- I do see where it was once nominated for deletion once before, back on 2013-08-13. OIM20 ( talk) 08:04, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
