The result of the debate was No consensus, so keep. --Deathphoenix 15:41, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Was tagged for speedy deletion by User:Perfecto as nn-bio. It's an article about a recipient of the Croix de Guerre. I know that consensus has dictated that recipients of the Victoria Cross are notable, but wasn't sure about this award, so I'm bringing it to AfD instead. howcheng {chat} 19:25, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep and expand. How did he earn the award? --Andy Saunders 19:32, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep he seems notable enough to me, but the article needs to be fixed up and expanded.--B.U. Football For Life|Talk 19:36, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- I tried to fix a few things and add some more links, but it needs more work.--B.U. Football For Life|Talk 19:43, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete unless explanation and verification of the Croix de Guerre is produced, confirming that the heroism was of the highest order (roughly equivalent to Victoria Cross or similar), as the Croix de Guerre has been awarded at various levels. The article as it currently stands has no other claim to notability — many people fought in the second world war, were group captains, etc.. His membership of the Arbuthnot family does not qualify as a notable accomplishment. Sliggy 23:24, 26 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete but subject to change per Sliggy. Stifle 09:53, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
