Nikola Novak

Bump from PROD. Article claims notability; no sources for alleged heavyweight champion status. (Fails WP:BIO if there is no verification of heavyweight championship status, since Mr. Novak appears not to have competed at the highest level as an athlete.).

 * Delete Champion of what? "Heavyweight division" could be amongst the mates down at the pub for all we know. There isn't even anything to prove this person exists. "Nikola Novak" kickboxer -wikipedia gets a grand total of 3 hits even remotely relevant. DarkAudit (talk) 18:18, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment I recognize your concern. I was just assuming good faith on the part of the article's creator. Lastingsmilledge (talk) 19:30, 8 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete - I did a search on MSN and found nothing relevant. Doesn't appear to pass WP:N. Giants2008 (talk) 22:14, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep sources can be found, if hes the champ. lets assume good faith.Myheartinchile (talk) 04:25, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Reply Sources like what? The search I did resulted in just a name on a list in a language I don't speak or read, a table of names with little to no context, and what looks to be a sports result in a language I don't speak or read. From what little I could gather from those hits, nowhere in those hits does it say he's a champion. A claim of champion must be proven with reliable, verifiable, and independent sources. Good faith does not trump proof. DarkAudit (talk) 15:42, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
