Shawn Williams (grappler)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable grappler. Finishing third at an ADCC qualifier does not show notability since previous discussions have determined that even qualifying for the ADCC world finals is not sufficient to show notability. Not enough to show he meets WP:GNG.Mdtemp (talk) 20:08, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete Doesn't seem to meet the notability levels for grappling. Marcos Avellan was deleted and he qualified for an ADCC tournament--Williams didn't even do that.  Running a martial arts school also fails to show notability.204.126.132.231 (talk) 20:34, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Delete Doesn't seem to meet the usual standards required to show notability in grappling. I'm not sure the article's only source meets WP:RS, it seems more promotional than encyclopedic.  Subject does not appear to meet WP:GNG. Papaursa (talk) 20:41, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
