This article on Kawy has been tagged has being inadequately sourced for over 6 years. I looked, and there appear to be no special notability guidelines for Squash players. Thus Kawy would need to fulfill the general notability guidelines, and it appears to me that none of the sources here are reliable 3rd party sources.

- Keep based on WP:IAR. This squash player has competed at the top of her sport including competing at the sport's world championships including the 2010 Women's World Open Squash Championship where she placed second, as well as being a team member competing in multiple world team championships. There are many match reports. I understand that routine reporting of matches is not considered coverage for the purposes of notability, but the material does confirm her high ranking. We don't have a specific notability guideline for squash, but that is most likely due to a rather inactive Wikipedia:WikiProject Squash. If specific notability guidelines for squash were created, there's no doubt that ranking in the top 10 or coming second at the world championships would qualify. -- Whpq (talk) 02:40, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
