Paul van Rietvelde

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails GNG as no SIGCOV can be found. Fails NBAD, BASIC and ANYBIO too. Cannot find a single RS which mentions "Paul van Rietvelde" more than once except this and this, which are only promotions for a new sponsorship, and some local news/interviews like this (maybe the best source but still doesn't help the article achieve BASIC) and this (routine charity event that doesn't provide coverage for the subject except for some feelings from him). 1E might also be applicable as these two sources exist just because he was going to participate at the Commonwealth Games; ("preparing for the Commonwealth Games", "I'm definitely going for a medal", "competing at a home Games is always important", "hoping to take part in the Commonwealth Games") no similar coverage could be found after the Games.
