AK Ikwuakor

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Former member of a relay team, achievements do not meet WP:NATH. Coverage is focussed on the relay team not the individual, or is not independent. 1292simon (talk) 22:45, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep. The subject holds the Nigerian athletic record in 400-meter hurdles and has numerous other titles at individual and relay level—essentially fulfilling WP:NATH. Also, his business has quite a bit of independent and verifiable coverage as well, including a detailed article by Sports Illustrated. Momer313 (talk) 00:35, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your input as the creator of the article. Please be advised that non-individual events (such as relay) and records that are not world records do not fulfil WP:NATH. Cheers, 1292simon (talk) 21:10, 30 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete. The subject would have to succeed in an actual competition, a prestigious regional competition such as the African Games or Commonwealth Games would have been enough. His Nigerian record in hurdles is not a good record in the athletics world, and we have thousands of national record holders ineligible for Wikipedia inclusion.

 * Keep. The subject is an very known athlete in African World. Wikipedia is full of articles of athletes at lower junior and high school levels. Article is needed to overwrite in a more neutral way.Montell 74 (talk) 13:20, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Why is a relay runner who didn't compete on the African scene, known in the "African World"? This is so counter-intuituve that is has to be proven. He retired several years ago, so won't get any more coverage for athleticism. In addition, the claim that Wikipedia has written about a large number of high school athletes is just bull, and irrelevant anyway. Geschichte (talk) 22:02, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
