Keep. Clearly notable. Numerous references under "Richard Longworth" eg [1]. Why do deletionists waste other people's time and effort instead of doing a bit of basic research and contributing to the net value of knowledge in Wikipedia? Opbeith (talk) 12:29, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've expanded some of the information about Longworth's purportedly "non-notable" activities (notability obvious from a slight glance at the references). If anyone has the energy and inclination they could disambiguate this Richard Longworth from the other Richard W. Longworth whose article bears the Richard Longworth title. That would be a rather more effective use of time than proposing unread articles for deletion. Opbeith (talk) 17:53, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Change of opinion - might as well delete. He seems to reckon that his biographical material is copyright, even information that he circulates for use at other sites. Opbeith (talk) 18:50, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
