The result was delete. While Kotniski does make a point, there is a clear lack of sources to prove notability. The consensus therefore that I see is for delete. Wifione ....... Leave a message 06:45, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Non-notable bodybuilder who has not won any major championships in his sport. The article lacks references and contains at least one dubious BLP reference. Fails WP:ATHLETE and WP:RS. Regent of the Seatopians (talk) 01:58, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I still don't see people's thinking here. Having competed in his sport's major world championship, he doesn't just "scrape by" WP:ATHLETE, he passes it confortably. (I don't know why being national champion isn't listed as a criterion under athlete, but it surely should be, and that would be another reason.) American athletes of far less significance are given Wikipedia articles - why the rush to delete someone who just happens to come from a country where the sources are written in a funny language?--Kotniski (talk) 12:19, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
