This is a WikiProject advice page on notability. It contains the advice of one or more WikiProjects on how notability may be interpreted within their area of interest. This page is not a Wikipedia policy, as it has not been reviewed by the community.

Squash players are deemed notable if they meet any of the criteria below:

1. Were ranked as a top 50 professional player at any point in their career.

Squash coaches are deemed notable if they meet any of the criteria below:

Should a person fail to meet these additional criteria, they may still be notable under Wikipedia:Notability.
