• Keep He seems to meet WP:NCYCLING #5 because he won in 2006 the British National Time Trial Championships (and, if deleted, he would be the only person missing an article in the over-23 winners). As for GNG, there is plenty of coverage in the cycling press, and the mainstream press provides many reports describing his life and career on the occasions of his death and subsequent accident enquiry. The article is particularly well referenced. Thincat (talk) 10:00, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Please read WP:NCYCLING. --Racklever (talk) 10:13, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough, but I did read Wikipedia:WikiProject Cycling/Notability. There ought to be consistency between them. Kevin McE (talk) 10:48, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep there is quite a bit of coverage about him in national media before and after his death. I think he is notable according to WP:BASIC. Drchriswilliams (talk) 10:27, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Withdraw now that I see that the criteria at Wikipedia:WikiProject Cycling/Notability are not actually the criteria. Or are they? Discussion needed at WT:CYC Kevin McE (talk) 10:48, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

(I !voted above) I know little about cycling and was not aware of the WikiProject or its criteria. Yes, something should be sorted out. I simply found a worthwhile article and didn't think deleting it was a good idea. Thincat (talk) 13:06, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - aside from the cycling specific criteria, the references on the article include an obituary and articles written specifically about the subject from The Scotsman and BBC News; i.e. non-trivial coverage in multiple third-party trusted sources, easily satisfying WP:N.
