The result was delete. I fully expect to be taken to DRV for this, but here goes. The problem is WP:NTEMP - "it takes more than just a short burst of news reports about a single event or topic to constitute sufficient evidence of notability". Since this individual clearly doesn't pass WP:ATHLETE, what are we to do if he never passes it? Is such an individual still notable because they received some coverage in their formative years? The answer, I'm afraid, has to be no. When (as seems likely) they do hit ATH, then of course the article should be recreated. Black Kite 00:34, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
