Violates WP:NOTDATABASE and does not meet WP:GNG as a non-notable Olympian.

He competed as part of a team of 22 Dutch Gymnasts in the 1908 Olympics, with his team coming second last, with us knowing little beyond that; just when and where he was born and died. BilledMammal (talk) 05:25, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

 * "Violates WP:NOTDATABASE" isn't true or relevant, as the article is not 1)Summary-only descriptions of works, 2)Lyrics databases, 3)Excessive listings of unexplained statistics or 4)Exhaustive logs of software updates. If there's no further info on this guy, then redirect to Gymnastics at the 1908 Summer Olympics – Men's team per WP:ATD, WP:PRESERVE, WP:R and WP:CHEAP.

 * Delete The place to search old dutch newspapers is Delpher.nl and the best search term is "C.L.J. Becker". His name turns up in results of gymnastics matches. Mr. Becker was national champion in 1907 and 1908. Still, coverage is rather insignificant.Ruud Buitelaar (talk) 01:59, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
