Deprodded without rationale or improvement. Accomplished, but not enough in-depth coverage to pass WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 14:10, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Speedy Keep The prod was blatantly false and so is this nomination. The article already lists obituaries in The Times and Daily Telegraph and it is easy to find more such as The Guardian too.  So, WP:GNG is obviously satisfied.  Claiming that deletion of such a newly-created article would be uncontroversial and unlikely to be opposed seems so erroneous that discussion should be closed forthwith.

 * Keep Clearly notable, has a knighthood, obituaries in The Times and Telegraph, has an entry in UK Who's Who Piecesofuk (talk) 18:47, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Clear notability as a knight per WP:ANYBIO #1, which a knighthood easily meets. Very, very clear precedent. No knight has ever been deleted at AfD. Plus obits in major national newspapers, always held to make one notable. Ridiculous nomination. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:06, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
