Isabella Rositano

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article is about non-notable athlete that doesn't meet WP:NSPORT. Also doesn't pass GNG as there is no significant coverage of her in independent sources,. There are no stories in Australian media sources which mention her name. All the references included in the article are closely connected with the subject. Kb.au (talk) 04:55, 28 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep National champion. Member of the national canoe team. World record holder. Plays football for Italy. AIS scholarship recipient. Plenty of independent coverage. Easily passes WP:GNG. None of the sources in the article are published by the subject.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  05:43, 28 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep -- if I'm reading this right https://canoe.org.au/2016/10/05/isabella-rositano/, she placed 1st in the national champrionship in 2016; this meets WP:NSPORT. Article is reasonably well cited at this point with appropriate amount of bio content; does not violate other guidelines. K.e.coffman (talk) 19:50, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. Just being a national champion does not always meet WP:NSPORT, especially for low profile or obscure sports. In Canoes case there is nothing in NSPORT that gives that a pass so we go with the standard "for example, participated in a major international amateur or professional competition at the highest level (such as the Olympics)." ICF was only juniors. Since no pass there it comes back to GNG. There is a lack of Independent coverage for GNG. Looking at the four sources Haweye7 highlights, 1, UniSA, not independant, "where UniSA student Isabella Rositano". 2, The governing body of the sport she competed in is not independent. 3, Only her name on a list, lacks any depth of coverage about her. 4, she works as an ambassador for Black Dog Institute are not an independent. None help with GNG. The same issues occur with the other sources in the article, a lack of independence or a lack of coverage. Other claims of notabilty. National team does not pass NSPORT. World record is one of those silly gimmicky ones and is team thing and lacks independent coverage. Football for Italy, does not pass WP:NAFL. Scholarship holder, nothing that special there, lacks independent coverage. A Factiva search got zero hits for her unless she was also a student film director or actress (which she might be). duffbeerforme (talk) 07:18, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Rubbish. Of course the governing body of a sport is independent of the athletes.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  08:42, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * No athletes, no sport, no sporting body. No sporting body, no national championships, no organized competitions. Each dependent on the other. Sporting bodies are to varying degrees employers who are clearly not independent. duffbeerforme (talk) 10:31, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * It's all a conspiracy.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  10:47, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:NSPORT. Article could use clean up, expansion and improved referencing per WP:ATD. Hmlarson (talk) 22:29, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Hmlarson, which part of NSPORT? Kb.au (talk) 01:01, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
