Subject is a triathlon club. Sources found in web are primary marketing, associated sites, directory and lack of WP:SIGCOV of WP:RS, WP:IS to indicate the club is notable to be included in Wikipedia main space. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 04:38, 31 December 2019 (UTC)

- Delete - I don’t see enough SIGCOV to establish notability. Celestina007 (talk) 11:57, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
Please forgive as I'm unsure whether I'm supposed to add comment here in support of my document not being deleted. I, Peter Heron (the article creator), have edited it since and included many references and removed some detail that cannot be referenced. I have also ensured the document is no longer an orphan by linking it to other Wikipedia sources (albeit CASSIOPEIA has moved the other source to draft). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Peter Heron (talk • contribs) 11:09, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:NOTWEBHOST, WP:NORG, WP:MILL, and WP:GNG. If this were 2007 or 2012, I could take claims that a person created an article with links to non-independent sources, in good faith, but this is 2020. There's zero newspaper references online, and exactly one book reference. There's zero evidence this meets notability in any way, but rather is a small, local club. We are an American Charity, not a free web host for a few amateur athletes in Liverpool. Bearian (talk) 18:32, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
Relisting comment: I relist because I must discount the opinion by Bearian; we are an international project and cover the entire world. I cannot close an AfD as "delete" on the basis of what can be read as an expression of nationalist prejudice or chauvinism.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Sandstein 18:24, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Not enough coverage in reliable sources to establish significant notability. Kind Tennis Fan (talk) 06:09, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
