Fails tennis notability guidelines. Only players who have won a grand slam event are entitled to a player season article. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Tennis/Article guidelines#Article types and recommended practices Wolbo (talk) 10:18, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

  • Delete - Non-notable individual tennis season of an otherwise notable professional tennis player. Please note: WP:NSEASONS, by its express terms, only applies to team seasons, not sports seasons of individual athletes. Furthermore, while I am glad to hear that WikiProject Tennis has adopted internal project standards and/or rules of thumb applicable to stand-alone articles for individual tennis player seasons, WikiProjects do not make binding Wikipedia-wide policies or guidelines. To qualify for inclusion as a stand-alone Wikipedia article, an article subject, in the absence of a specific notability guideline, must demonstrate the subject's notability under the general notability guidelines per WP:GNG. GNG requires that there must be significant coverage of the specific subject in multiple, independent, reliable sources. In this case that means significant coverage of "Milos Raonic's 2014 season" -- not Milos Raonic (for whom an article already exists), not the 2014 ATP Tour (for which an article already exists), not the individual tournaments in which Raonic participated (for which all of the majors already have articles), and not for Raonic's 2014 promotions and endorsements. That signficant coverage must specifically cover the specific subject of "Raonic's 2014 season," otherwise the subject fails the general notability guidelines per GNG.
