Dear Bradv I see you rejected this AfC. Why? The person is meeting N:OLYMPICS and is well referenced inline. So according to N:SPORTS there is no obligation for more sources. Sander.v.Ginkel ^(Talk) 17:56, 9 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

There's no death date given, so I'm assuming he is still alive. That means the policy on biographies of living people applies, and multiple sources are needed. Bradv 17:59, 9 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

@Bradv: If you take a look the reference (see here), you will notice that his date of death is missing. Before, I created these kind of articles (when >100 years) with Category:Possibly living, but that was all replaced by date of death missing. Sander.v.Ginkel ^(Talk) 18:06, 9 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

These shouldn't be going through AfC anyway. There's a backlog of over 1000 articles, and you're creating 10 articles per minute. We can't possibly review them all in a timely manner, and we certainly can't be expected to discuss each one. Please stop for now until your ANI thread concludes.

I looked him up on Ancestry and found that, according to the "New York, U.S., New York National Guard Service Cards, 1917-1954" and "U.S., World War II Draft Cards Young Men, 1940-19472, his full name was Frederick Adam Leinweber and his mother was called Christine. I can't find any record that says he's passed. Skycloud86 (talk) 11:45, 9 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
