Per WP:BEFORE searches, this subject fails WP:BASIC. Searches are only providing name checks and faint passing mentions in independent, reliable sources. The entire article is reliant upon primary sources, which are not usable to establish notability. North America1000 10:30, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep The coverage in both the Encyclopedia of Latter-day Saint History and The Religious Studies Center article. There is clearly enough coverage to show notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 23:58, 14 October 2018 (UTC)


 * Comment – The Encyclopedia of Latter-Day Saint History is a primary source, because it is published by the Deseret Book Company, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Deseret Management Corporation, which is wholly owned by the LDS Church . As such, it is not usable to establish notability. The BYU Religious Studies Center article has two paragraphs about the subject. An important matter is that multiple, independent reliable sources that provide significant coverage are required, not just one. North America1000 01:48, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete per nomination. There seems to be an infestation of such articles in Wikipedia. -The Gnome (talk) 11:33, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete The Religious Studies Center link that the above editor claims as coverage is the author bio for an article by the subject published by the Religious Studies Center, not independent coverage about the subject. Other sources in the article are not independent (Ensign, Encyclopedia) or not reliable ("Grampa Bill"). The Encyclopedia of LDS History source is probably fine for factual information about the subject, but not sufficiently independent to count toward general notability of an LDS church leader (see WP:IIS). Otherwise search finds passing mentions and quotes in religious material, brief mentions in routine coverage of church announcements, and occasional quotes reproduced without analysis. It does not add up to significant coverage of this subject in multiple, independent, reliable sources. Subject does not appear to meet WP:GNG. Open to alternatives if significant coverage emerges.
