- Keep, Come on nominator, I know you are nominating a ton of unsourced BLPs for deletion, but you have to look a little better on some of these. I quickly found sources saying he is one of the great names of Panamanian sports history (see URLs slapped into article, or [1] for an English confirmation.)--Milowent • talkblp-r 16:24, 3 December 2010 (UTC)[]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

- Keep – I'm not knowledgeable about the competition Layne won his gold medals in, but being one of the more well-known athletes in any country is a clear indication of notability. Surely the Panama media wrote extensively about him at the time. Giants2008 (27 and counting) 16:29, 10 December 2010 (UTC)[]
