Re: the notability issue - I spotted her name on the Gymnastics at the 1988 Summer Olympics – Women's artistic team all-around page and noted she was one of only a handful of athletes listed without an article. I could not list her attendance at the 1988 Olympics in this article, because I could not find a verifiable source for it as she did not compete for some reason, but she had a respectable non-Olympic career, both as an Austrian competitor and for the NCAA. There are many gymnasts whose notability could be questioned similar to this one, such as Mauricette Geller, Gemma Cuff, Stella Savvidou, Davaasürengiin Oyuuntuyaa, Ashleigh Clare-Kearney, Annelise Koster et al. I am not sure what the notability line is here - if she is ineligible, so be it, but I would be curious to know why the others I have listed are and Schier is not. If I need to flesh out the article that is one thing, but the point made was notability, so I am focusing on that. Thanks! -Etoile ✩ (talk) 20:27, 28 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
