Removal of Prod

[edit]

@Materialscientist: See WP:NOLYMPICS. They're only presumed notable if they medalled, which Aad Oudt did not. If you can't add significant coverage, can you restore the prod? BilledMammal (talk) 00:43, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WP:NOLYMPICS guarantees notability, but is not a necessary requirement, see sections for individual sports on that page. There is no section for swimming, but as far as I know, participation in Olympics is sufficient for notability. If you disagree, please start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Swimming, as this issue is general and is unrelated to Aad Oudt. Materialscientist (talk) 04:22, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Materialscientist: NOLYMPICS was changed last year. It now only presumes notability if they medalled. BilledMammal (talk) 04:25, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, but this does not mean that non-medaling Olympians are not notable, see e.g. criteria for specific sports like athletics. Surely, some sports are more notable than others, but swimming is not an obscure one. Materialscientist (talk) 06:48, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
