WP:NOTABILITY. Driver has only contested a handful of races in entry level categories. As a side note, this also represents a wider problem with WP:MOTOR in that more and more drivers without notability are getting articles. MSportWiki (talk) 00:25, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Draftify. I do agree that he isn't notable at the moment but he has a lot of Wikipedia:POTENTIAL and should therefore be kept as a draft.Formula Downforce (talk) 07:37, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - Can we just introduce a blanket rule against creating articles about Formula 4 drivers unless they're noteworthy for something else? We don't need dozens of WP:BLPs of seventeen year olds to be constantly checking for vandalism where essentially all the independent coverage is WP:ROUTINE if any exists at all.

- Draftify - This was already a draft in the first place and was contentiously moved to mainspace by a user in June. Sztuka is not notable at present but WP:POTENTIAL is more than evident. Furthermore, the nominator's rationale is nonsense - Sztuka hasn't "only contested a handful of races in entry-level categories", he has won a dozen races and also a championship title in entry-level categories. The wider problem here is new users not bothering to read Wikipedia's guidelines and making articles for random drivers they like. I reckon this should be tackled with immediate draftifications and talk page messages, not AfD's. MSport1005 (talk) 10:49, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete article of a MINOR, per HumanBodyPiloter5. RegalZ8790 (talk) 16:03, 30 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
- Draftify the article; Sztuka has shown sufficient Wikipedia:POTENTIAL and his win count in entry-level categories ranks in the double digits. I agree with the sentiment that his notability is not sufficient for an outright article yet, but deleting his page instead of draftifying it would make no sense, as the page has a high probability of being used in the future.

- Draftify the article. KVYTICAL makes a good point. BurningBlaze05 (talk) 9:28, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
