Poorly-sourced stub on a non-notable priest. Archdeacons are not inherently notable per WP:RELPEOPLE, therefore WP:GNG would need to be met, but the sources cited are insufficient and a search finds nothing beyond the usual appointment news, passing mentions, and the odd social media account. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:17, 8 July 2022 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Notable person. Other Archdeacons in the Church of England have entries. Holder of a historic position. Needs extra sources: e.g. Who’s Who entry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Frog-clock (talk • contribs) 07:24, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Comment -- We have normally allowed articles on archdeacons, probably because many had articles in old DNB. The sourcing is in fact adequate (though not good).  The question is whether we should allow them as a matter of course.  The position is perhaps less important than it was historically, becasue most dioceses have a suffrigan bishop, when formerly they did not.  Peterkingiron (talk) 18:30, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge (basically just the citation to Crockford's to make it retrievable) to Archdeacon of Maidstone. Jahaza (talk) 08:43, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
