The result was Speedy Keep (non-admin closure). Clear consensus on the notability. Moved to Ang Rita. WilliamH (talk) 18:10, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sherpa Ang Rita

[edit]

Article has no references despite a request for such dating from Sep. 2007. While only two sentences long, the biographical article manages to make the questionable (unref.) claim that "[h]e has climbed all the major mountains and is accepted as one of the best mountain climbers of the world".

Keep Seems legit: [1]. Zagalejo^^^ 20:12, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep but move to Ang Rita; Sherpa is not part of his name, it's something closer to a title. Bio. --Dhartung | Talk 21:41, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep as Ang Rita. Held the world record for the number of ascents of Everest. Has an article in a paper encyclopedia. How much more notable can you get? Phil Bridger (talk) 10:27, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
