According to El Vocero and El Nuevo Dia, no SIGCOV shows up if you search those websites, which actually run contrary to an edit summary. Since I can't find any more SIGCOV otherwise about the Puerto Rican athlete, nominating for deletion.  Invading Invader  (userpage, talk) 03:53, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Comment SIGCOV requires significant coverage from sources independent of the subject. I believe that some will argue that her coaching page on St John's University is SIGCOV, but technically that isn't since St John's U is her employer and not independent.

 * She won a gold medal at a central american and caribbean games and participated at an Olympic games, so based on that, I will say keep. Jeanette irresistible Martin (si?) 07:18, January 11, 2024 (UTC)
 * Strong keep, thank you for nominating the article because it helps us improve it. Please read the first part of Yvonne Harrison, Harrison's name became a household name in Puerto Rico in part because of the coverage given to her career by local newspapers such as El Vocero and El Nuevo Dia, which follow her accomplishments and doings almost on a daily basis. The daily coverage in multiple newspapers and the "household name" descriptor are the clearest possible evidence of WP:SPORTCRIT and WP:GNG. Annoyingly the newspaper website paywalls all content over 30 days old, but you can see from the search results that there are a number of website hits, not even including the paper newspaper hits where I assume most coverage was published. --Habst (talk) 16:22, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
 * As I stated, I searched those newspapers and I saw no coverage. All four articles seem to have at the best of my ability and level of access, mention her in passing.  Invading Invader  (userpage, talk) 16:46, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Their archives don't go as far back as when Harrison competed, however; I would AGF that the creating user 20 years ago knew what they're talking about, as otherwise I don't see why anyone would write that. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:50, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @InvadingInvader, thank you for your scrutiny because it motivated me to find this article:
 * Please read it in its entirety. It is a full page story dedicated entirely to the subject, clearly demonstrating WP:SIGCOV. It has a lot of details, including that she was "best friends" with Flo-Jo before her death, with them calling each other once per week and staying at Flojo's home. That is pretty amazing to me actually, and deserves more fleshing out in the article. But yes, this is a very strong keep to me. --Habst (talk) 19:20, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Keep. This find by Habst is excellent and proves notability. BeanieFan11 (talk) 19:17, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
