The result was redirect to Rugby union at the 1900 Summer Olympics#Rosters. however, if someone thinks Rugby union at the 1900 Summer Olympics is preferable, that's also fine. Star Mississippi 01:55, 4 May 2022 (UTC)

Prod removed without explanation or addition of sources. Prod justification was Fails WP:GNG, WP:SPORTCRIT #5, and WP:NOLYMPICS. No significant coverage in our article or the German article (there is one dead link there, the archived version can be found here but it only mentions him in a list of players), and no coverage identifiable in a search.

- If nothing can be found on this guy, then redirect to Rugby union at the 1900 Summer Olympics per WP:ATD, WP:PRESERVE, WP:R#KEEP and WP:CHEAP. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 11:23, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
- Delete This whole article is anarchonistic falsehoods. Before 1908 Olympic competitors did not represent countries, which is why in a 1904 Olympics at some point they retconned a winner from being American (the person was a resident of the US, and came to the Olympics under the sponsorship of an American institution) to Norwegian (because he was technically a Norwegian citizen until about 3 months after the Olympics). In 1900 there were no medals at all. We should not be preseving false and misleading articles at all.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:31, 26 April 2022 (UTC)

- Redirect to Rugby union at the 1900 Summer Olympics#Rosters Doesn't appear to be enough for a GNG pass, although there might be some offline sourcing in books for example. Source three doesn't really offer enough for a GNG pass. Without this though, redirect is a suitable WP:ATD and there doesn't look to be any confusion with the name to stop a redirect here.
