The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus. There is no clear consensus, even after being relisted twice (where it failed to gain anymore discussion). I'm also disregarding one contribution because of WP:NOTAVOTE. I don't believe a third re-list would give this debate a clearer consensus so I'm therefore closing it. (non-admin closure) st170e^talk 21:48, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP1E. Known only for being involved in the sinking of the Rainbow Warrior, and all content is about this. Should be covered there, if at all. Sandstein 20:35, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - lots of source spread across multiple countries, decades and languages. Stuartyeates (talk) 23:03, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

But this does not address the problem that the sources are all about one event, the Rainbow Warrior sinking, which should lead us to cover this person in the context of that article. Sandstein 08:43, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP1E has three required conditions, only the first is met. Publishing a book about the event is not maintaining a low profile. Stuartyeates (talk) 23:12, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep significant enough to meet notability NealeFamily (talk) 04:27, 5 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as still questionable for solid notability, seems best connected to that event. SwisterTwister talk 23:59, 7 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep household name in New Zealand and of interest and notability as a person, not only in connection with the RW bombing. MurielMary (talk) 12:16, 8 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The example given at "Subjects notable for only one event" is John Hinckley, who is notable only for attempting to assassinate Reagan however has his own page as his role and the event are both significant. Marfart similarly fits this description - the event was significant, and his role in it was substantial. MurielMary (talk) 00:33, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
