Recreation of previously deleted bio page. See Articles for deletion/Michael Solonoski for the discussion that led to the previous deletion. Solonoski still does not meet the general criteria for notability in WP:ATHLETE, as he has still not qualified to compete "at the highest level" of his sport even in his own country (the senior division of the US Figure Skating Championships). Also see WP:WPFIGURE/N for specific discussion of notability for figure skaters. Solonoski did medal at the national Collegiate championship and was selected to compete at a minor international event, but per the US Figure Skating policies such collegiate competitors are not considered part of Team USA or members of a team envelope. I enjoy watching Solonoski's skating and give him credit for continuing to compete while attending college.... but his competitive accomplishments to date are not such that he has established any long-term notability in the sport.

 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Athletes-related deletion discussions.
 * Delete agree with well argued statement by nominator. The argument is essentially the same as for the previous AfD, and I would not be perturbed if CSD G4 was applied -- Samir 06:16, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Speedy delete per CSD G4, previously deleted via AfD and notability still not established.-- Giants 27  ( Contribs  |  WP:CFL ) 19:54, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
