Does not appear notable per WP:SPORTBASIC - competed in one Olympic event in 1928 but did not finish, and seems to have received very little coverage since then - I can only find a few passing mentions or records in sports databases. Ethmostigmus (talk) 10:56, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

 * I am probably able to save it. Cross-country skiing is the national sport in Norway, and he is covered in several books - as well as contemporary and later news. Geschichte (talk) 10:03, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
 * That would be much appreciated :) Ethmostigmus (talk) 10:45, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Done, so keep. Enough in-depth significant coverage, although he, unlike his brother, does not have an entire book dedicated to him. (I haven't used this book in the article yet) Geschichte (talk) 11:02, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep, per excellent work by Geschitchte. BeanieFan11 (talk) 17:06, 29 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Also very happy to keep in light of all the print coverage Geschitchte was able to find :) Ethmostigmus (talk) 06:49, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
