Delete. Notability. jni 07:00, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Comment even though I've never heard of him (or any other swim coach), he's been a coach of the US Olympic swim team more than once, his USC teams have won several NCAA championships, he's in the International Swimming Hall of Fame, has served on the board of the American Swimming Coaches Association, etc. Do we have notability guidelines for athletic coaches? —Wahoofive (Talk) 20:54, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- But does he deserve a mention *outside* of that list? Should we merge some of this info there... Master Thief Garrett 21:45, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I agree, should be merged if a catagory exists for this. Adun 19:21, Apr 26, 2005 (UTC)
Keep, Olympic coaches are notable. Kappa 04:05, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Keep. Coaches who have coached Olympic medallists are certainly notable. Capitalistroadster 05:01, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Merge as above. R adiant _* 09:16, Apr 27, 2005 (UTC)
since we have a (semi)-consensus, I now cast my vote: Merge, as above. Master Thief Garrett 10:21, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Merge to what? —Wahoofive (Talk) 21:49, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Keep. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 19:04, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Keep. I added to the article the NCAA championships he won at USC and I mentioned he has been the US Olympic coach. Zzyzx11 | Talk 05:22, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Coaches of Olympic medalists are no more automatically notable than parents of Olympic medalists. Based on the current facts presented about him, I have to vote delete though I might change my mind if we knew why he was in the International Swimming Hall of Fame (and if the article mentioned that).
