The result was speedy keep. Withdrawing as nobody seems to agree there's a BLP concern. (non-admin closure) power~enwiki (π, ν) 17:50, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A teenage who is a world champion in fly casting, apparently a niche sport. I'm not sure the coverage outweighs possible BLP concerns. power~enwiki (π, ν) 23:37, 26 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- KEEP: subject easily meets WP:GNG, and being the world champion—as well as the youngest world champion—in her sport meets WP:SPORTBASIC, even if it's not everyone's favorite sport. McCormick has received coverage from the San Francisco Chronicle to the New York Times and not just recently: 2016 and 2017 as well. She has been featured in American Angler magazine[1], and DUN Magazine, a publication geared towards women in fly-fishing. Nothing in this article violates WP:BLP (it's reliably sourced and non-contentious), and any problems with content can be fixed with simple editing. --Animalparty!

- Keep: a world champion, with considerable news coverage. Not a BLP problem as it's all info which is very public. PamD 10:38, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep as I don't think it matters if it's a minority sport - she is world champion and it is reliably sourced XyzSpaniel Talk Page 13:44, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong keep: world champion with substantial newspaper coverage. Not sure what the nominator's BLP concerns are. — Bilorv(c)(talk) 14:33, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
