This is a BLP for an athlete who competed in the Commonwealth Games and in Scottish National Championships. Although she had significant success at youth level, this isn't enough to meet athletics notability guidelines.

There are several articles on Ramsay's career published online. However, these are all based on interviews and most are published by organisations she is associated with.

I have improved and updated the article, but I still don't believe there's enough to meet GNG. The article appears to have been created by the subject and a notability tag added shortly after its creation was removed in error. MarchOfTheGreyhounds (talk) 11:45, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment on a quick look, I found [1] which is significant coverage of her. And also [2], though it seems like she worked for Scottish Athletics, so may be a primary source. Worth someone doing a more thorough search to see if WP:GNG can be established, as I think it's possible that she will. Joseph2302 (talk) 14:20, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Just to note I had already added the first source to the article before nominating for deletion. I don't think it's a primary source though as it's largely based around an interview. As you say, the second source is from an organisation she is affiliated with so doesn't do much good (and again, it's strongly based around an interview).

It doesn't appear there was any significant coverage in local or national papers at the time of her selection for the Commonwealth Games, I suspect due to the abundance of Scottish athletes participating. Perfectly happy to reconsider if something else emerges/ MarchOfTheGreyhounds (talk) 15:09, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
