Sean Rabbitt

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Figure skater from America. Fails WP:NSKATE. Highest finish at U.S. championships is 12th. Did medal in the Skate Canada Autumn Classic. The autumn classic was a "senior B" competition for 2014, however it was not in 2015 when Rabbit medaled. Prod was removed with no reason given. Bgwhite (talk) 20:06, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep He has notability. The Avengers (talk) 00:40, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
 * As you are new, you should read nobility guidelines first. A mention in an article is not notable.  A report of an event where he is mentioned is not notable. A blog is not notable. He fails WP:GNG and WP:NSKATE.  You need show more than Google search.  Bgwhite (talk) 05:53, 28 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete: may well be a great skater but does not qualify under WP:ATHLETE; it is TOO SOON. Quis separabit?  21:24, 1 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete - good skater, but does not meet WP:ATHLETE, and searches did not turn up enough for him to pass WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 03:48, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep He actually passes the WP:NSKATE. The 2015 Skate Canada Autumn Classic was not part of the Challenger Series, but it is still a competition recognized and acknowledged by the ISU, and as such is a Senior B international. It is listed on the ISU Calendar of Events page for the 2015-2016 figure skating season, with its own page, with links to the official Skate Canada website, ISU list of entries, and results. (see October 12-18 section.) Therefore he passes WP:NSKATE and is entitled to have a Wikipedia page per number 5 of the Figure Skating Notability guidelines.

 * Comment, pinging - Can you address 's user's comment that the 2015 event where he won a bronze was indeed "senior B" competition? I can't figure it out based on the sources provided.  Onel 5969  TT me 14:55, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
