Delete Non-notable darts player based on low level competition participation. Insufficient references to establish notability. Possible notability in a few years time if his career developed but not notable for an article at present. Coldupnorth (talk) 12:32, 10 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Does the fact that he was seeded at the 2020 BDO World Darts Championship not suggest notability (though given the BDO is generally seen as the lesser Darts World Championship I can see why there might be doubt about this)? Also, and this may be a more general issue that needs to be looked at, but as far as I can see everyone who played at the the two BDO World Championships he is down as competing at has an article.

Keep the article is no longer unreferenced as I've added sources, and I feel the subject is notable for competing in a world championship. Nothing wrong with a local paper, WP:GNG doesn't exclude local coverage. NemesisAT (talk) 11:23, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
