No significant coverage to meet the WP:GNG and no evidence that he meets WP:SKATER in that he didn't win his national championships. Is there any evidence available that he actually did compete at international, not just national level? The-Pope (talk) 23:42, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. He competed in the Trophee de France, a Grand Prix of Figure Skating event, and the Nations Cup. Although WP:SKATER doesn't say this, I think one can generally assume that national medalists in countries with strong skating programs (Canada, USA, Russia, China, ...) have also competed internationally.

 * Keep - Meets WP:NSKATE having competed at Grand Prix events. This fan site indicates he has participated in Skate America.  Admittedly the site is not a reliable source, but I rather suspect that the information is true and we need to dig through print publications to get a reliable source. -- Whpq (talk) 16:01, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Keep – Having skated in a Grand Prix event, he meets the figure skating portion of WP:NSPORTS.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 01:05, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
