[edit] Chuck Greene

A search of "Chuck Greene" javelin only gets a few dozen hits [1], mainly retreads of this article, his achievements are minor at best. Renosecond 04:03, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete 8th place in one NCAA championship is not exactly the Olympics. (Why does an article about a javelin-thrower have a picture of him target-shooting with a pistol? Doesn't seem terribly relevant.) -- Fan-1967 04:11, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep based on his gold medal in the international competition in Israel. Dekar 21:33, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Comment I'd like to point out that the Maccabiah Games are basically the "Jewish Olympics" and even the article says that they are on a lower teir than even the Commonwealth Games, which most medal winners do not have articles based on those accomplishments. And I couldn't find anything verifiable based on my search. And looking at the contributions, I have a feeling that said subject created his own article. Look at the names and oddness of the pic.
