What has this got to do with the "single incident biographies" you refer to
in the title of the message?
I'd be more specific and disallow "single incident negative biographies".
If some newbie athlete comes out of nowhere and wins gold at the olympics,
that's a single event, but I for one would consider it nuts not to have an
article about them.
