Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wesley Frazier (2nd nomination)


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was delete. In there end there seems a consensus that notability has not been lasting and thus there is a consensus to delete. While there were suggestions that there might be an alternative to deletion, no concrete suggestion was made as to what that might be. A passing reference was made to the GNG, but keep !voters failed to explain why the assertion of WP:BLP1E not being satisfied is wrong based on policy or guidelines. As such there does appear to be a consensus to delete. Barkeep49 (talk) 01:38, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

Wesley Frazier is not notable beyond a single event - her short running career in High School. Although her event was covered by multiple sources in 2013, neither Frazier nor her younger sister had any more events widely covering them - especially after both graduated high school. Thus the article should be deleted per WP:1E.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep I see relevant non trivial sources like USA Today which calls her the "Nation’s top girl’s distance runner". We need to explore WP:ATD. Lightburst (talk) 02:21, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep — The number of standing records alone seems to result in notability. She wouldn't be the first one to have notability in a moment, only to fade away. Perhaps WP:ATD could make sense if there is already an article that deals with the records and such currently addressed on her page. Thmazing (talk) 06:07, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete, fails WP:SPORTCRIT in that she has never competed at the highest level of her sport, incidentally not at the second highest level either, in fact not at any kind of continental or international level. High school records are not notable and the coverage about them is not significant. Geschichte (talk) 08:13, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete High school athletes who never moved to a higher level of the sport are not notable. (JayPlaysStuff &#124; talk to me &#124; What I've been up to) 01:29, 2 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. This seems like a great example of why we have BLP1E and why high school coverage is generally ignored. If she's garnered no other significant coverage in the last 6 years I think it's safe to say she's a private, non-notable individual at this point. JoelleJay (talk) 18:23, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
