A rower who was in the Goldie crew in the second-tier boat race event, which in itself is not enough for an article. The article has been a target for vandalism for a long time with many unsourced claims added. Sources don't appear to exist to either justify keeping the article or to improve it.

- Comment. Participants in this discussion might want to refer to this old version of the article rather than the current one or the ones in between with blatantly implausible unverified claims. While no better sourced that the current version, it does mention a silver medal in the 2005 World Rowing Championships, which is a far stronger claim of notability than membership of a Goldie crew and should be fairly easily verifiable. However, as this was in an under-23 event, I believe it just misses meeting WP:NSPORTS, even if verified. PWilkinson (talk) 21:30, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
- Delete Doesn't have the coverage needed to meet GNG and doesn't meet WP:ATHLETE. Even if sourced, a junior event is not enough to show notability. 204.126.132.231 (talk) 18:27, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
