 * Keep - sticky toffee pudding, hotel/restaurant awards, Maxim's, MBE. Clearly notable. Emeraude (talk) 17:50, 20 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep per good source coverage. Also the MBE makes him notable for WP:ANYBIO#1. Cavarrone 06:21, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
 * 'Keep. Incoherent nomination: You can't "delete" the subject when he's already dead. And yes, the subject clearly has a minor notability. -- Hoary (talk) 06:57, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep The nom. does not explain why the subject is not notable. MBE on its own is sufficient. --Clean-up-wiki-guy (talk) 16:28, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. The MBE certainly is not sufficient (hundreds are awarded every year); we usually require at least a CBE for inherent notability. However, an obit in a major national newspaper does qualify him. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:37, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
