Cyril Ogston

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This person founded a hamlet, yes a hamlet, not a town or village but a hamlet. The place has a population of under 200 at present, and was named seven persons, maybe because it was how many residents it had. We really learn nothing else about Ogston from the article. The article is unsourced, and from searching for him it seems most things I found about him existed because there is an article on him in Wikipedia, not the other way around. This article has existed for 16 years, all the way since 2004. That an unsourced article on someone with nothing even close to even a claim to notability has existed for so long seems a blight on Wikipedia. John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:31, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Seven Persons where he is already mentioned. No stand-alone notability. Spiderone  19:44, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. No coverage of the subject can be found to show notability. This unsourced, unnotable article should be a speedy delete and should not be redirected. Fails WP:GNG as there is zero notability. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 20:56, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Founding a small settlement isn't a notability freebie in the absence of a WP:GNG-worthy volume of reliable source coverage about him. Bearcat (talk) 07:59, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:GNG. While a founder of a settlement could be notable, it's far from automatic. There's no other allegation of notability and no reliable sources at all. Bearian (talk) 22:45, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
