  • Comment Playing in a darts world championship makes nobody notable. Playing in five didn't save Peter Johnstone from deletion as he failed GNG. Foulkes has nothing other than "man wins darts match" articles online and therefore fails GNG. Dougal18 (talk) 15:27, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Comment As you have mentioned in a previous discussion, WP:SPORTCRIT states that notability can be assumed if 'they have, for example, participated in a major international amateur or professional competition at the highest level', which I would argue the PDC World Championships falls under, given its professional status, significant prize money, global nature of participants, and sizeable viewing audience in several countries. If you would still fall back on WP:GNG as an argument for deletion regardless of passing WP:SPORTCRIT, I would hasten you to look at a few of your created articles and tell me whether they pass WP:GNG, or whether they fail WP:GNG and you would have to fall back on other categories to argue against their deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lewcario (talkcontribs) 11:48, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
