Notability essays should provide guidance on minimum criteria which a person would likely need to achieve in order to attract |significant coverage of their accomplishments. I've criticized MANOTE before for being overly generous in this regard; my experience with these discussions has been that MANOTE does ''not'' reflect the availability of coverage, it reflects what members of |WikiProject Martial Arts have decided should be their own criteria for inclusion, and that's not how Wikipedia works. We're #IINFO|not an indiscriminate collection of information, we reflect what |reliable sources determine are |notable subjects. Here's what this means here: this person clearly meets MANOTE criteria: although poorly sourced to a site with user-submitted content, there are independent sources (i.e. https://books.google.ca/books?id=MtQDAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA26&lpg=PA26&dq=us+national+judo+championship+1978&source=bl&ots=eqdRxIt2Dk&sig=6JZ2T0GffEEoZmi_FhdGxMcijJU&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi33Oiy6pDKAhUEkh4KHQdEByMQ6AEIMTAC#v=onepage&q=robin%20haley&f=false) which state clearly that she did compete and medal in national-level competition, as CrazyAces489 pointed out. But so what? Where is the significant coverage of her win? Haley is mentioned in a bullet point in that reference, as are everyone else who medalled in that tournament, names like Frances Tomlinson, Skip Watkins, Ann Maria Waddell, Delores Brodie, Maureen Braziel and Mary Theriot, a few I chose randomly from the same source. Braziel is a pioneer of the sport and has significant coverage of her career beyond this; the others are the same as Haley: bullet point mentions in tournament results, and no substantive content at all, not even in ''Black Belt'', ostensibly ''the'' martial arts magazine from the time. So, is a repeated medalist in a significant event likely to meet GNG? It seems not. '''tl;dr:'''  is flawed; Haley and others of her caliber fail
