Sorry, but some things are definetly impossible in my opinion. So to have since 14 (!!!!) years in this project an article that stated, he wanted to go to the 2006 Olympic Games. I know the information, but the author of this non-article seems never again to care. And obviously nobody else. So nobody here needs the article in this Wikipedia. Van Wees would be worth an article, he was an interesting athlete. But my english is not good enough to write whole articles here. I don't see a person who would do it. But it is for me impossible, to have this sub-stub here for then a 15th year. Marcus Cyron (talk) 16:18, 22 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete He didn't qualify for the olympics and the competition he was in does not give notability to all who were just in it.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:30, 23 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh. Van Wees would be notable, but it's not written in the article. Dutch national champion (2001, 2003, 2008, 2009, 2011), participant at World championships (2001-2004, 2007-2009), European Championships (2003-2005, 2008, 2010) and at the World cup for years, where he earned useually points. And he participated 2006 at the Olympic Games, but not as athlete, but as coach of lebanese Patrick Antaki. And in 2002 he was the fist push start World champion in Skeleton. The thing is not his natability. The thing is, that nothig he ever achived is written in this "article". Van Wees would deserve a article or a red link, tha actual is just an insult for this sportsman. -- Marcus Cyron (talk) 13:39, 24 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete As per WP:NOLY, if he had competed in an Olympic game, he would be considered notable. Generally, athletes are not notable for participating in championships, and it does not appear that he has won any (https://www.ibsf.org/en/athletes/athlete/128524/Van%20Wees?page_number=4).Rachoote —Preceding undated comment added 00:04, 30 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
