 * Delete per nom. Also fails WP:SPORTBASIC, prong 5 ("Sports biographies must include at least one reference to a source providing significant coverage of the subject, excluding database sources."). Article is a micro stub based solely on a database and fails to cite any SIGCOV. Cbl62 (talk) 22:10, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I've looked through all the google results and at other wikis and here's what I've found: the French wiki has a slightly more detailed article and lists this short source from L'express. There's a brief piece here. Is this a book about her and three others? There seems to be an article on her at Le'Parisien but something seems up with that website and the article isn't making sense. That's all I could find. Looks like a GNG fail unless that book has something. BeanieFan11 (talk) 23:16, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep Djamalidine is one of the greatest track and field athletes in their country's history. Deleting this article will only further Wikipedia's systemic bias. We should work to expand it from existing sources (thanks BeanieFan11).--User:Namiba 23:52, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * This is not a valid rationale. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 00:07, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Agree with Sportsfan 1234. We need WP:SIGCOV (including at least one example in the article). If this is done, I'll reconsider my vote. Cbl62 (talk) 00:27, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment/Question: I added some content, noting she has represented her country on multiple occasions. I don't know the sports guidelines well, so have a question: does holding multiple national records not make her presumed notable? Is that what WP:NATH C4 means? CT55555 (talk) 00:10, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Depends on the country. It is far more difficult to hold national records in China than in Niue.  If Comoros has national championships, and she has won them, then yes, NATH #4 would apply, but I do not see that in the article.  Onel 5969  TT me 01:03, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * It only says she holds records. I now assume that records can be won without a championship, so if I'm processing this correctly, being the best in a smaller (population 850,000) nation at many track events (holding the record) is not an indicator of notability? CT55555 (talk) 01:06, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * The subject fails NATH #4 "Have won their country's senior national championship, with the exception of those that have never been ranked in the top 60 on the IAAF world leading list at the end of a given calendar year. The subject has never been ranked in the top 60. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 03:03, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:NTRACK as pointed out fails NATH #4. LibStar (talk) 03:21, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG due to lack of significant coverage Alvaldi (talk) 20:19, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete This continues the systematic bias problem, but unfortunately the sources don't establish that WP:NBIO is met. MrsSnoozyTurtle 21:44, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
