 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__. This is confusing as the subject has won championships but I guess, given the comments, the tournaments aren't notable enough in themselves to meet WP:NTENNIS standards. If an editor would like to continue to work on the article in Draft space (in case of TOOSOON), contact me or ask at WP:REFUND. Liz Read! Talk! 23:03, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Non-notable tennis player who fails to meet WP:GNG and WP:NTENNIS. Being a highly ranked Russian tennis player doesn't inherently mean notability as has been mentioned in the argument against PROD. Adamtt9 (talk) 22:55, 29 March 2024 (UTC)


 * He is the winner of thirteen ITF tournaments, five in singles!
 * He is among the top-10 Russian men's singles tennis players!
 * Two-time champion of Russia in doubles (2022, 2023).

 * What has any of that got to do with WP:NTENNIS or WP:GNG? Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 00:14, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Two-time champion of Russia in doubles (2022, 2023)!!! Zboris (talk) 17:21, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete Nothing really notable here. Winning minor-minor league events against a lot of teenagers is not notable. If he steps up to the minor league Challenger level tour and wins an event or two, then we can take a re-look. Fyunck(click) (talk) 09:27, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete. Fails WP:SPORTSBASIC, WP:NTENNIS, and WP:SIGCOV. Probably a case of WP:TOOSOON. If he starts winning some tournaments in a higher league, or sets some sort of recognized Tennis record as described in WP:NTENNIS it can always be recreated.4meter4 (talk) 19:03, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
