Prodded by Indrian on September 13, 2007. I've rewritten the biography to remove conflict of interest issues and assert notability. I am not, however, sure if this cyclist is notable or not. Under Wikipedia:Notability (people), an athlete is notable if they have played or competed at the highest level in amateur sports (who meet the general criteria of secondary sources published about them). Greenwood rode in 2005 and 2006 for Recycling.co.uk, which is a UCI Continental team—the highest level of amateur team. SeveroTC 21:39, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Keep He looks notable. According to his website in 2006[1] he accomplished the second place in King of the Mountains classification in Tour of Britain, competed in Tour de Langkawi and Baby Giro. I think that's important enough.Drunt 22:15, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Not because of his website but because of coverage here and here. "The Under 23 National road champion and representing Great Britain in the 2005 and 2006 at the UCI Road World Championships."--Sethacus 22:34, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. I don't think this needed to go to AfD as rewritten, but I appreciate Severo being careful. Indrian 23:27, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
