The result was keep. The subject meets criteria #4 of WP:SKATER, having competed in the 2014 Skate America. This guideline states that satisfaction of one of the criteria therein equates to presumed notability. North America1000 01:56, 26 April 2015 (UTC)

Non-notable sports-person. No claim of notability and the single reference does not provide in depth coverage as per WP:GNG. Stuartyeates (talk) 11:17, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

Delete perhaps the shortest Wikipedia article ever. Not notable.Purplethree (talk) 17:16, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
 * It could certainly stand to be longer than it is — but trust me, it's in no way setting any kind of record for shortness. Stubs of this length are actually quite common and I've seen much shorter too (people routinely try to get away with "John Smith is a writer, the end.") Bearcat (talk) 15:48, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Delete Most significant accomplishment was a 5th in pairs at the Canadian championships which is not enough to meet WP:NSKATE. The only source is a link to her record so she also lacks the significant coverage required to meet WP:GNG. 204.126.132.231 (talk) 15:39, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - according to ISU profile, competed in 2014 Skate America and that meets #4 of WP:NSKATE. Article does state this in the infobox (I will add info in article text as well).  Very short article and should have tag(s) added for improvement, but since we have the presumption met I say keep.RonSigPi (talk) 18:20, 17 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep. Per Ronsigpi.  Purple's !vote rationale (size of article) is not supported by wp criteria, and therefore should not be counted. Epeefleche (talk) 08:09, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete I don't see how coming in 6th in one event equates to notability. I did find one other article that mentions a "second place" in a Canadian event, but I'm still not convinced about notability. Note that a virtually identical article exists for the skating partner Vanessa_Grenier. LaMona (talk) 00:52, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
