  • Please keep this page. His connection to Harry Truman goes beyond being his grandson.
    • The subject is very notable by virtue of being the child of a child of a US President, particularly that one.
    • He is the child of 2 very well known and influential individuals, either of whom would qualify him to have a Wikipedia page.
    • He wrote two books, each is about Harry Truman and others connected to him.
    • He has an oral account on the following site about his grandfather: https://themoth.org/stories/clifton-truman-daniel
    • He has knowingly presented himself to the public.
    • According to the wiki page on him "he is Director of Public Relations for Truman College, one of the seven City Colleges of Chicago."
    • He has not attempted to remain out of public attention.
  • Who were the ones who initiated the deletion of this page? And specifically why? I speculate that those actions are enough to keep it.
  • Thank you. 100.36.90.181 (talk) 14:59, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

For those of us who are history and genealogy buffs, this is vital information. The Wiki bio rules need to be changed to allow whatever info is available on the descendants of Presidents of the U. S. 2600:8804:4000:6E00:FCC5:1CF0:6C98:258A (talk) 15:35, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, he is an author, former journalist, honorary chairman of the board of a major Harry Truman related institution, and has appeared on television as an advocate of his grandfather's memory. Aside from that, and because of the concerns of IP 100 above, please note that the nominator has been nominating many U.S. presidential relatives and not just this one, seems to be a concerning swath through a major portion of prominent U.S. historical families.

  • Keep: In spending about 30 minutes on this, and adding a number of new cites, its clear there's no question of notability.--Milowent • hasspoken 18:28, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep coverage in the article is sufficient to meet the WP:GNG. There is no requirement that relatives of famous people be separately notable for there own accomplishments only that they have sufficient sources about themselves to write a proper article. That standard is met here. Eluchil404 (talk) 04:33, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per Milowent and Eluchil404. Passes WP:GNG. Sal2100 (talk) 19:40, 16 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
