*'''Delete''' fails sigcov. The "Olympic medalist" criteria was written on the assumption that there would be more than 3 teams in any competition, not with the early competitions where sometimes there were 3 or less in mind. It was also written with individual not team, especially large scale team, competitors in mind. It was also clearly not written with any attempt to show that even mealists would in greater than 90% of cases meet GNG, so it was really not written well at all. Sports SSNGs explicitly say GNG must be met, so we should delete this article that lacks sigcov.[[User:Johnpacklambert|John Pack Lambert]] ([[User talk:Johnpacklambert|talk]]) 14:40, 9 February 2022 (UTC) |

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Fails WP:GNG through lack of significant coverage, though due to a silver medal in the 1908 Olympics as one of the two team competing in the event as prod is not appropriate.
It is unlikely that significant coverage will be found, due the limited information we have about who he was, and Olympedia ending a single paragraph of coverage with the statement "Nothing more is known about Jones’s life."
A redirect is not suitable, due to the disambiguated title and due to this article being confused with other rugby players with similar names, such as Eddie Jones BilledMammal (talk) 04:34, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
