Fails WP:BASIC with only primary sources. That the author describes Sweeting as "on the road to being known internationally" and someone to "be on the look out for" suggests it's WP:TOOSOON for a Wikipedia biography. McGeddon (talk) 17:31, 24 May 2016 (UTC)


 * This page doesn't need to be deleted unless you are going to delete the pages of other Bahamian athletes like Warren Fraser and fellow sprinter Anthonique Strachan — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ovoxandrew (talk • contribs) 17:54, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * The fact that other, equally-poorly sourced articles exist is an argument for deleting those articles, not for keeping this one. You need to show that Sweeting meets basic Wikipedia biography criteria. --McGeddon (talk) 18:58, 24 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment-I might be wrong-but I believe this page has been deleted before. Wgolf (talk) 18:31, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * All I'm seeing is a presumably unrelated db-nonsense "born on a pirate ship in 1423..." from 2007 and a (never deleted) user page about a sprinter at User:Andrew Sweeting Jr. --McGeddon (talk) 18:58, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Might of been a similarly named page I saw then. Wgolf (talk) 19:02, 24 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete: No evidence of meeting WP:GNG, and as a school athlete he doesn't meet WP:NTRACK. Can't find any secondary sources. Kolbasz (talk) 19:19, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete I searched for sources. Could not trace any that can help this article reach GNG. Xender Lourdes (talk) 19:42, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete-per nom, also I believe this is a autobio. Wgolf (talk) 21:15, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep: More information on this athlete coming soon, this isn't a autobio, this is a bio about a athlete, — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ovoxandrew (talk • contribs) 23:57, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete He is a high school athlete with potential but he has not yet achieved it.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:52, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
 * SNOW Delete as there's nothing at all here for the applicable notability. SwisterTwister   talk  04:28, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
