Lacks significant coverage, notability not established for generic horse that won a single minor race Reywas92^Talk 04:59, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep in this case, the horse won a race that is very significant in Peru. (It is akin to one of the Triple Crown Races in other nations) The problem is there are a couple other horses with the same name plus all the sources on this horse are in Spanish —and no one at WP:Horse racing apparently is fluent. Do not conflate sourcing with notability. This is a problem for athletes in the global south generally, not just racehorses. Montanabw^(talk) 04:00, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Notability – WP:GNG – is absolutely based on sources, and there is no automatic notability without significant coverage. A "presumption" can be rebutted by the lack thereof. If you're attributing notability purely on this one race, it could redirect there instead. Reywas92^Talk 14:40, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  - significant coverage would be in the sports press of Peru, And sourcing is an ongoing issue for all topics in the global south.Montanabw^(talk) 22:17, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
