The result was redirect to Rowing at the 1928 Summer Olympics – Men's eight. Unlikely another relist is going to generate consensus that differs given outcome of similar discussions. Consensus, slim as it is, is unanimous. Star  Mississippi  02:13, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Guus van Ditzhuyzen

We do not have any significant coverage of Ditzhuyzen, only mention on one sports statistics website. As a non-medalist in the Olympics he does not meet our notability guideline. I search on newspapers.com and found absolutely nothing. Also google news and google books indicated no sources at all. John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:40, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
 * In the event of nothing being found on this guy, then redirect to Rowing at the 1928 Summer Olympics – Men's eight per WP:ATD, WP:PRESERVE and WP:R.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 17:49, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Comment - I am not sure why not finding anything on newspapers.com would be particularly relevant here. The subject was a Dutch Olympian, and newspapers.com does not seem to have coverage of Dutch newspapers (I checked on a very notable Dutch sportsman, Marco van Basten, and newspapers.com turned up nothing on him from the Netherlands).  I would note that this person does have a page on the Dutch Wikipedia and there is one book listed as a source for him, but I don't know how deep the coverage is in that book because the book does not seem to be on Google Books.

 * I did a quick search on delpher.nl, the search engine for 20th century dutch newspapers, journals, magazines and books. There are a few mentions of mr. van Ditzhuyzen, or van Ditzhuijzen (y and ij are interchangeable in dutch). His name is mentioned in rowing competitions around 1928. Still, coverage is not really significant. I agree with Lugnut´s recommendation to redirect. Ruud Buitelaar (talk) 03:15, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
