Steve Fisher (cyclist)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

due to not meeting notability threshold due to lack of significant coverage and as per Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Cycling. His only stage win was in a 2.2 category event, which does not meet the notability requirement of Won (a stage, or an overall individual classification) a Grand Tour or finished on the podium of a Monument or Won a UCI category race (minimum classification 1.1 / 2.1, including Continental and National Championships).

 * Keep The rider may not meet the cycling criteria however they do meet WP:GNG. There is sufficient reliable and verifiable articles to show Fisher meets GNG. Paulpat99 (talk) 22:30, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Sportspeople, Cycling,  and Washington. Shellwood (talk) 22:45, 4 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep Per above, article has been greatly improved since nomination and clearly passes GNG.Seacactus 13 (talk) 03:57, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete No articles referenced in the Steve Fischer wiki article are particularly about him except for results pages which is similar to what you will find for most cyclists at a higher level. All the references in the article are links to results or limited news articles about lower tier races and not about the rider. Unfortunately, his race wins do not meet the notability for a UCI category race. Struck the ivote of the nominator. You cannot ivote twice. Bruxton (talk) 04:17, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

The rider does not meet any of the significant coverage on Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Cycling: Significant coverage is likely to exist for a male cyclist if he meets: Won a UCI World Tour; Won (a stage, or an overall individual classification) a Grand Tour or finished on the podium of a Monument; Won the UCI World Championships or UCI World Cup; Won Gold at an international multi-sport event (games) (also includes races like the World University Cycling Championship); Won a UCI category race (minimum classification 1.1 / 2.1, including Continental and National Championships). — Preceding unsigned comment added by KeepItGoingForward (talk • contribs) 05:48, 5 December 2022 (UTC)


 * I will add that the Fischer does not meet the basic criteria for sport's person of, "Sports biographies must include at least one reference to a source providing significant coverage of the subject, excluding database sources. Meeting this requirement alone does not indicate notability, but it does indicate that there are likely sufficient sources to merit a stand-alone article."

 * @KeepItGoingForward as nominator you do not get to vote, you making this page counts as the vote. Please remove your entry. Paulpat99 (talk) 07:11, 5 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep. Passes the WP:GNG. WP:SNOW also applies. That's right, there is one delete !vote but it is really by the nominator. gidonb (talk) 04:18, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep notable cyclist. Bruxton (talk) 04:14, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
