Fails WP:SPORTCRIT. School sports isn't notable in the world of athletics, and coverage of children's athletics is not significant enough for Wikipedia. WP:TOOSOON with a few years at best. Geschichte (talk) 19:51, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak keep: There's enough coverage to meet WP:BASIC/GNG as a general entry in my opinion. Doesn't appear to just be a WP:RUNOFTHEMILL HS athlete. A Google search shows significant coverage in independent sources. Ex: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] C F A 💬 22:01, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  I agree with this. Several American high school athletes with notable achievements have their own Wikipedia article and significant coverage by independent sources, such as Quincy Wilson. KnowledgeIsPower9281 (talk) 23:56, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per the excellent work sourcing done by @Clearfrienda. Also to directly rebut the nomination – school sports is actually very notable in the field of athletics, take a look at how often "U.S. high school" is covered by World Athletics here: "u.s. high school" site:worldathletics.org. The idea that children's athletes are automatically not notable is also not reflected anywhere in WP policy that I can tell – if the general notability guideline is met, an article can be written. --Habst (talk) 04:00, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
