Per Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)/Archive_135#The_criteria_of_SPORT_here_are_too_inclusive|this discussion, subject-specific |notability guidelines do not supersede the |general notability guideline, except in clear cases where |GNG does not apply to. ''As it is the single most recent consensus on the notability of sport bios'', I feel obliged to go with the result of the discussion: '''NSPORTS does not supersede GNG'''. This really does need to be reflected on sport guideline pages, though, as this can seriously mislead people. The 'weak' is rather because that closure has not been linked or obeyed much, and is not in common use. Also, I will note that less coverage has to be applied for this article to be considered notable
