Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/CJ Gavlas
While it's true that we do have some articles about college players in other sports, that's because those players ''pass'' the inclusion criteria that permit a college player to have a Wikipedia article — it does ''not'' mean that ''all'' college athletes automatically get into Wikipedia just because they exist. Being on the national volleyball team at the ''Olympics'', for example, would be a notability pass, but being on the national team at the ''regional'' NORCECA championships is not. And while winning Rookie of the Year from Canadian Interuniversity Sport is ''potentially'' a stronger notability claim, it's not strong enough to get a person into Wikipedia if the ''only'' source you can provide is a PDF of NORCECA's own organizational newsletter — even our inclusion rules for sportspeople still require the claim to be referenced to |reliable source coverage in ''media'', not |primary sources published by organizations the subject is directly affiliated with. No prejudice against recreation in the future if better sourcing can be shown, but the sourcing ''here'' ain't cutting it — a person passes our inclusion criteria when the claim to passing our inclusion criteria is ''reliably sourced'', not when it's merely unsourcedly or primary-sourcedly ''claimed
