 * Keep WP:GNG met. Article could use further expansion and reference integration, not deletion. Hmlarson (talk) 21:01, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete - The sources are all of the WP:ROUTINE and trivial mention sort, so doesn't pass WP:GNG, and doesn't meet WP:NTRACK.  Onel 5969  TT me 17:51, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Except that's just not true. Scotsman, Herald, Fife Today are some examples. Hmlarson (talk) 18:27, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
 * The first two links are practically the definition of routine sports coverage. --Ahecht ([[User_talk:Ahecht|'''TALK
 * Really? What an interesting interpretation of WP:ROUTINE. Hmlarson (talk) 15:18, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep. Common sense should indicate that a national athletics champion who competed at several major games is suitable for inclusion. --Michig (talk) 06:52, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment We have WP:NTRACK for a reason. Just competing a the national level isn't enough. Lots of people do that, as there are lots of nations that have lots of championships every year. Instead, you have to have won a national championship or placed highly in an international championship to get presumed notability. If you disagree with that, take it up with WikiProject Athletics. Failing a presumption of notability based on WP:NTRACK, you have to demonstrate that their was a sufficient level of non-routine significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article to satisfy WP:GNG. --Ahecht ([[User_talk:Ahecht|'''TALK
 * A guideline is a rule of thumb, and should never override common sense. Having said that, since Ovens was a national champion (2003 and 2006 1500m AAA indoor champion), satisfying criterion 5 of that guideline, and competed in the World Indoor Championships in 2003, satisfying criterion 1, she satisfies WP:NTRACK. --Michig (talk) 16:43, 10 April 2017 (UTC) Actually she also won the 1500m AAA indoor in 2005 - see this. So a 3-time national champion who also competed in the World Indoor Championships. --Michig (talk) 17:27, 10 April 2017 (UTC)
