Grave concerns about the article, and its talk page, with regards to BLP, UNDUE, Notability policy and general lack of importance, on top of which the roll-call of suffixes/awards is a clear piece of vandalism. I can find next to no evidence of this person's importance, notability or standing in society and have no confidence in this article being rescued from the self-satisfied, self-promoting PR puffery it contains. Has been a subject of a contested deletion before. doktorb _words^deeds 13:19, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete—Every single source is self published. Except for the deadlinks, that is. Possibly Internet famous, but not shown to be notable per WP standards. If this survives, somebody better do a full rewrite. Livit⇑^Eh?/_What? 18:57, 5 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -- Teh award of an OBE suggests some notability, but a lot of the editing on this article has bene done by single purpose accounts, including some clearly related to the subject. He has certainly (if we believe the article) engaged in a good deal of public service, but I see litlte in the article to make him notable in WP-terms. Lots of OBEs are awarded, and I do not think they are evidcne of notability by themselves. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:04, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
