Winqvust comepeted in the Olympics, but did not medal. We determined that such people are not default notable. A search for additional sources turned up nothing that would lead to passing GNG on this person. However there is a different person with this name who was involved in a case in the United States about land rights, so this is also by no means a good candidate for being a redirect.

 * Delete I checked the Finnish newspaper archive and there were a few mentions of him attending (as a member of a crew of three) the English 1937 coronation regatta (e.g. ), but that's pretty much it. A person with the same surname (, paywalled) has an article in the Finnish National Biography, but appears to be wholly unrelated. Unless someone can come up with e.g. book sources (or something else I missed), I think this is a rather clear delete. -Ljleppan (talk) 08:59, 1 February 2022 (UTC)

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete lacks WP:SIGCOV, per the assessment by Ljleppan, John Pack Lambert, and myself. BilledMammal (talk) 02:38, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
