Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2008 Summer Olympics medals per capita
This is deletionism taken to a senseless extreme. The article clearly isn't original research - the information is sourced to an external reference.  does deprecate the use of blogs but actually says "Self-published material may, in some circumstances, be acceptable when produced by an established expert on the topic of the article whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable third-party publications." LATimes is, I think we can agree, a reliable third party publication and the person who wrote the article Chuck Culpepper is described http://www.orionbooks.co.uk/14244-0/author-Chuck-Culpepper.htm here as a "lead sports columnist" - sounds like an established expert to me. The final argument - NPOV - is a poor argument for deletion
