Declined prod. Was eliminated in first bout. Fails WP:SPORTSCRIT. LibStar (talk) 02:38, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

- Redirect to Malawi at the 1988 Summer Olympics: As I suggested when I declined the PROD, redirect as a WP:ATD. No WP:SIGCOV is cited and a cursory G News/Books search didn't come up with anything. Let'srun (talk) 03:32, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
- Redirect to Malawi at the 1988 Summer Olympics - These machine generated non notable olympic competitor stubs are all trending redirect to the relevant Olympics page. Instead of using PROD, could these be redirected under WP:BLAR instead, as that will save a lot of unnecessary time at AfD. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 07:18, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
- :For competitors who only appeared at one Olympics, I think that is a viable way to move forward. Let'srun (talk) 12:59, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
- :: Given how many have turned out to be notable when inspected close enough, I don't think redirecting them all en masse is appropriate. BeanieFan11 (talk) 14:42, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
- :::A BLAR takes me considerably more effort than was put into creating these. We are not talking about en masse. This is a manual process that follows editor review of sourcing, establishing the redirect is not controversial, that the article is problematic and sourcing unavailable. It is simply reverted should anyone object. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 15:44, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
- :::: {{tq|A BLAR takes me considerably more effort than was put into creating these}} – really? I could BLAR one of these in like, 10 seconds if I wanted to. If you're actually looking for sources I'd be more supportive (though I'd still not entirely support); unfortunately many editors who try to delete Olympics articles don't do that, which is why I don't like the idea of giving a 'green light' to redirection.

- :::::Even checking sources for one minute would be more time than it took for these articles to be created. Let'srun (talk) 20:26, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
- Redirect – Per above. Svartner (talk) 16:47, 18 April 2025 (UTC)
