Unable to find sufficient in-depth coverage from third-party sources, failing WP:GNG. I found this and three sentences here, which would not be enough. JTtheOG (talk) 08:56, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

- Keep or draftify This is one where I'm not sure an AfD was the way to go - he plays for a top-level club in a country where hockey is popular, and has national representation. With football, that's more than enough to be considered notable. Should we treat hockey the same as football in that regard? Anyway, he has not yet made a senior Olympics debut (only a 10th place Youth Olympics finish and the Canadian team qualifying for 2024): it will be easier to judge GNG notability after that and so the article should at least be draftified (not deleted and not content-removal redirected yet) for this purpose.

- He did make a senior Olympic debut, he played at the 2020 Summer Olympics. Parwa104 (talk) 13:22, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
- Soccer needs to meet GNG, even if they play for a top club. I am sure the same notability standards apply for field hockey. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 13:40, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
- Delete All I can find is coverage of him from his hometown - Delta Optimist only - like [1]. SportingFlyer T·C 13:41, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect. Article was created when WP:NOLYMPICS had a looser criteria. I cannot find anything to indicate WP:SIGCOV. I don't think drafting would work, as coverage is unlikely to improve in the short term. I suggest a redirect to Canada at the 2020 Summer Olympics#Field_hockey as a WP:ATD. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sportsfan 1234 (talk • contribs) 13:42, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
