Subject does not appear to meet the WP:GNG due to a lack of WP:SIGCOV. Recommend possibly redirecting this to Burma at the 1948 Summer Olympics. Let'srun (talk) 21:11, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

  • Redirect to Burma at the 1948 Summer Olympics – As WP:ATD. Svartner (talk) 21:37, 9 May 2025 (UTC)
  • Delete: Non-notable athlete, the name hits a few times in Gbooks, but it's about students or university publications, nothing for an athlete. We have no sourcing other than what's in the article, with only a database listing. Oaktree b (talk) 22:05, 9 May 2025 (UTC)
  • Keep, I added additional sourcing to the article. Subject placed 6th at the Asian Games finals, was reportedly a member of Burmese nobility, and was written about in prose by olympstats.com noting how difficult it is to find information about Burmese subjects. I agree that additional sources are needed, but there are plenty of loose threads that need investigating here, for example whether he was the same personal as the Asian Games football medalist: Special:WhatLinksHere/Sein Pe. Notability is always determined by the existence of sources, never only their presence cited in articles. --Habst (talk) 12:55, 10 May 2025 (UTC)
  • Redirect. The OlympStats blog has literally two sentences on him, one of which is {{tq|Once again, we know very little else about him, but we hope that by highlighting his participation, we can learn more.}} If a sports history professor isn't able to find anything on this person that's a very clear indication sufficient coverage does not exist.

  • :A sports history professor isn't the same thing as a Burmese historian. The greater tie here would be to Burma/Myanmar where the subject is nationally relevant, not to athletics where the subject isn't world-class. --Habst (talk) 11:51, 12 May 2025 (UTC)
  • Delete No indepth sourcing to meet WP:SPORTSCRIT. NEXIST doesn't give a free pass to notability when no indepth sources have been found. LibStar (talk) 02:30, 13 May 2025 (UTC)
