Original nomination statement: I couldn't find any significant coverage of this bobsleigh athlete that would meet WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. All news that came up in my searches are passing mentions (TVP Sport and Wrocław Naszemiasto), as well as silly, random namesakes. Corresponding article on Polish Wikipedia article has been tagged for not having sources except external links for 2010; no major edits since 2022. CuteDolphin712 (talk) 10:36, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

Revised nomination statement as of 13 March 2024: Despite having achieved two medals, I couldn't find enough significant coverage of this bobsleigh athlete that would meet WP:NSPORT and WP:GNG. Everything that came up in my searches are brief mentions (TVP Sport and Wrocław Naszemiasto), as well as silly, random namesakes. Corresponding article on Polish Wikipedia article has been tagged for not having sources except external links for 14 years; no major edits since 2022.

 * Comment. Doesn't look very notable to me; won't be deleted from pl wiki where participation in Olympics grans notability, unlike here. Shrug. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 13:02, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep, subject is a multiple-time international medallist in athletics and is covered by both Polish and English sources; see for coverage in just one Polish newspaper. WP:ATD: Redirect to 1999 European Athletics Junior Championships where the athlete won his highest medal. --Habst (talk) 14:14, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Note that the nomination statement was edited in Special:Diff/1213511699. It's fine to edit it, but I think it is fair to note the changes made in the discussion because the nomination is in part what we are responding to. --Habst (talk) 14:42, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Question - Catch me if I'm wrong, but doesn't winning international medals automatically give a pass at AfD? Bearian (talk) 16:40, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Senior medals, maybe. These were underage medals, from competitions with dramatically less stadium attendance, TV time and overall media attention. However, a relatively small athletics meet might still generate more coverage than a relatively big competition in, say, canoeing Geschichte (talk) 17:16, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
 * No, because "automatic notability" doesn't exist as part of WP:NSPORT. It's a guideline that "significant coverage is likely to exist", but for some people meeting the criteria (which this one doesn't anyway), there may not be that coverage. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:39, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
