Sergio García (judoka)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Judoka who never competed at the Olympics and who never ranked even in the top 40 in his division. In fact the highest rank I could find for him was 66 in 2011. He also lacks the significant coverage required to meet GNG.Mdtemp (talk) 17:07, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep Winning a bronze at the Pan American Games hints towards some sort of notability. I found this. Difficult to find more with a common name and most sources not being in English, but I'll look for some others.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 17:59, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep If winning a medal at the Pan American Games isn't noteworthy enough, then why not start tagging every other existing article about a Pan American medalist -who has yet to compete at the Olympics- for deletion, too? If it matters, Sergio is taking part at the ongoing 2015 World Judo Championships. -- Lancini87 (talk) 22:16, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Given the large number of competitors and divisions, simply competing at the world championships is not sufficient to show notability. Papaursa (talk) 02:35, 26 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep I'm willing to agree that winning a medal, not just competing, at the Pan-Am Games is sufficient to show notability. However, since 40% of the competitors in his division won a medal, it's less impressive than it first seems.  That's probably why his ranking was as low as it was.
