 * Keep Athlete twice in the top 15 at the Olympic Games and winner of nine medals (four individual) at the European Championships. --Kasper2006 (talk) 07:43, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep While participation based criteria have been removed from WP:NSPORTS (i.e. it's not sufficient to have competed in Olympics, see WP:NOLYMPICS), I would imagine the European Shooting Championships medals fit the sports figures are likely to meet Wikipedia's basic standards of inclusion if they have achieved success in a major international competition at the highest level part of WP:SPORTSCRIT. Indeed, a cursory search shows there is relatively easily accessible online sourcing:
 * Based on these, it seems likely that further offline coverage exists in physical newspapers that are both too new to be in the Finnish newspaper archive, while concurrently being too old to have been published online. My !vote is weak because I'm not super familiar with the sports criteria, the available online sourcing is a bit so-and-so and further hypothetical sourcing doesn't count for much. -Ljleppan (talk) 08:15, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep, per Ljleppan. /Julle (talk) 09:37, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Commment. Looking at the article history, because there was no motivation as to why this should be deleted, it looks like there was a PROD back when the article merely included that Kauppila had participated in the Olympic Games. It has since been updated and expanded. As I understand it Kasper2006, who has !voted keep, took it here in response to that. Is anyone actually arguing for deletion of the article in its current state? /Julle (talk) 09:50, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep based on sources added by Ljleppan. @Julle - you are correct, but I'm sure someone will push for deletion presently nevertheless. Ingratis (talk) 10:22, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. Multiple-medal-winning athlete. BD2412  T 01:33, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
