Clarification on NBAD
editNBAD is one of the guidelines in NSPORT, NSPORT is one of the SNGs, and SNG is one of the notability guidelines. Quoting from SNG, articles which pass an SNG may still be deleted or merged into another article, especially if significant coverage cannot be found. Quoting from NSPORT's bolded keywords, the article should provide reliable sources showing that the subject meets the general notability guideline, and another quote, meeting any of these criteria does not mean that an article must be kept.. Therefore, passing NBAD does NOT guarantee an article, it is just a reference for whether coverage likely exists. Per FAILN, if appropriate sources cannot be found after a good-faith search for them, they can be deleted. So, SIGCOV is still the only way of determining notability; NBAD is just a reference.
If anyone is uncertain about this, please check all the discussions about SNG and NSPORT, e.g. this lengthy discussion on NSPORT.
