 * Weak Keep Although the sourcing of the article isn't great, Necrothesp did find some sources that are reliable and confirm Osborne was a world champion. Papaursa (talk) 14:08, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep: per Necrothesp. I likewise think that the sourcing is shaky, but the fact that the subject was a world champion is a definite indicator of notability.   Ravenswing      17:02, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
