Unremarkable Dark Ages nobleman. Article does not indicate how he is supposed to be notable. 1 ref. While he is the son of N and the father of N, i think those two individuals have been more notable then this guy. There is no doubt in my mind he exists, I can find mention of him in genealogical websites, and in 1 Google Scholar/Book listing. At least he isn't under governing of BLP.

  • Keep - Cumulatively there are a number of sources in French and Spanish that meet WP:BASIC. You're quite right, the article doesn't discuss the most important aspect of Amanieu VI's rule, which was the surrender of Milhau and its castellany to Prince Edward. The article needs improving, not deletion. Fiachra10003 (talk) 03:31, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for !voting keep. I'm going to withdraw and mark this as Keep unless you think it should be kept open, which would leave it prey to deletionists.L3X1 (distant write) 04:01, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

L3X1 Happy to go with your judgment. Sadly, Gascon medieval history is out of fashion or there would be more here. There is no article in French on the guy either. Fiachra10003 (talk) 04:22, 20 March 2017 (UTC) [reply]
Fiachra10003Ok, thanks for the info. L3X1 (distant write) 04:24, 20 March 2017 (UTC) [reply]
