WP:BLP of a handball player, not properly sourced as passing inclusion criteria for sportspeople. As always, sports figures are not "inherently" notable just because they exist, and have to show evidence of passing certain tests above and beyond merely existing — but Notability (sports) doesn't list any specific inclusion criteria for handball at all, which means it's WP:GNG or bust. This currently cites absolutely no sources at all, however, and even going back into its edit history, it's only ever cited primary sources in the past, and has never had any GNG-worthy reliable sourcing in it at all. As I don't have access to the French or Bosniak media databases that would have to be checked for archival sourcing from 10 or 20 years ago, I'm perfectly willing to withdraw this if somebody who does have access to such resources can find enough to salvage it — but absolutely nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have any proper sourcing.

 * French wikipedia has a great deal more content and sources - seems to have a good chance at notability if he's still playing top-tier handball in his late 30s when he started over 20 years ago. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:03, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Yeah, this is pretty obviously a topic that has WP:POTENTIAL. It's doubtful it's going to be impossible to source an article about a top-level sportsperson, it just needs work. --Joy (talk) 17:04, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep. Could not be any more notable within handball, as a European and World champion and Champions League winner. The problem is not a lack of available sources, but that there are too many sources. Examples:  . Geschichte (talk) 22:41, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Relisting comment: I agree with User:BeanieFan11, please add a reliable source to the article if you want it to be Kept as it is an unsourced BLP right now. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 21:33, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
