The result was redirect‎ to Jordan at the 2000 Summer Olympics#Athletics. No prejudice against spinning the article back out when more sources are found. asilvering (talk) 19:29, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Declined prod with the rather weak reason "Also has a foreign Wikipedia page". The Arabic page is basically the same without in-depth coverage. Lacks coverage to meet WP:SPORTSCRIT. LibStar (talk) 09:26, 8 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, it seems like this page was created under an incorrect name. I found several alternate names for the subject (which I created as redirects) revealing a few other accomplishments going beyond simply competing at the Olympics. For example, he finished 13th at the 2001 Mediterranean Games 5000 m and was the only Jordanian athlete at the 2008 World Cross Country Championships (had to create redirects for both of these names). According to Tilastopaja he also competed at the 1999 Arab Games where he finished 4th in his heat.

Unfortunately as there are at least 9 names for the subject in use, that makes searching for coverage difficult. There are also thousands of Jordanian newspaper hits making the search more difficult. But I think there's enough here to demonstrate that based on known accomplishments, sources should exist. --Habst (talk) 01:09, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect per WP:ATD to Jordan at the 2000 Summer Olympics#Athletics. This preserves the history in case further investigation uncovers more sources, which can't always be done against the clock, as here. Ingratis (talk) 09:28, 21 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Jordan at the 2000 Summer Olympics: Just database sources, but a plausible case that more sources might exist, so redirect to keep the page history available for future researchers and editors should sources be found. Dclemens1971 (talk) 13:47, 22 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
