Deletion of Vandita Dhariyal

Comment: What exactly is her notability based on?  Is it because she competed at the 2009 World Aquatics Championships?  There were 2556 competitors at this version of the annual event, so is every competitor at each of these annual events automatically notable? As a reference point--that's about the same number of competitors as the 2010 Winter Olympics, which encompasses a larger number of sports.  I ask because her best finish was 51st (out of 57) which wouldn't be considered notable in fields like karate, taekwondo, boxing, kickboxing, etc.--where top 10 rankings are generally required.  Being the first woman from her state to swim the English Channel doesn't seem to be as significant as being the youngest Australian male to make the swim, but Dan Canta's article was deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dan Canta.  I also don't think a passing mention for finishing second in an article about records falling at the pool in the South Asian games or for swimming the channel is enough to meet  as it seems like routine sports reporting and .  Everyone else has indicated that notability was obvious, so I'm just trying to understand what I'm missing. Thank you

Comment: I am new to trying to use the Wikipedia notability guidelines to assess AfD. However, it seems that, as there isn't a specific guide for swimmers, the  guidelines for athletics are considered, which says that athletes are "presumed notable if they meet any of the criteria below" - 5, "Finished top 3 in any other major senior level international competition (this includes prestigious small field meets, e.g. IAAF Diamond League/IAAF Golden League meets, less prestigious large scale meets, e.g. Asian Games, and any IAAF Gold Label Road Race that is not explicitly mentioned above)". I was assuming that the South Asian Games (in which she won a silver medal) would count. If that is so, it doesn't matter what media coverage there was, because it says "presumed notable" - notability doesn't have to be proved through sustained coverage. That's my understanding, anyway
