Lugstub and a NOLYMPIC fail. Unable to find SIGCOV and so a GNG fail in spite of a medal win which could pass for NATH. All sources found on Google with Cyrillic name (Астэрыя Лімай) provide mentions only in passing as part of a list.  Invading Invader  (userpage, talk) 18:26, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Comment. A few more-than-passing mentions:
 * A short news piece entirely about Limai's reaction to the 2020 Olympics (and the poor performance of the relay team she participated in):

 * Please see WP:NATH – it only says that sigcov is likely to exist. It doesn't flat out say notability is granted. Notability is granted with SIGCOV independent of the subject.  Invading Invader  (userpage, talk) 17:50, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Please read more carefully the comment you are replying to, which explicitly refers to sources and not merely athletic results. —David Eppstein (talk) 18:26, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep based on above references meeting WP:SPORTCRIT and WP:NATH. I think that the Belarus Athletic Federation piece is sufficiently independent in the same sense that any Belarusian newspaper is "independent" even if they primarily cover Belarusian topics. In addition, she is still in active competition (6 major results from 2023) so there is the possibility of future coverage. I also added her Belarusian Athletics Championships finals performances to her infobox. --Habst (talk) 16:11, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
