George Smith (royal servant)

For me, the article could be encyclopedic IF what makes it noteworthy were not subject to a legal injunction. As it stands, with the accuser dead, the accused alive and the prosecution dropped the article is not only not encyclopedic and lacking the necessary number of sources for such a story, but attempts to expand and improve it would likely be defamatory. This is why I think it might be better to delete it. Sira Aspera (talk) 19:47, 27 August 2022 (UTC) Relisting comment: No other participants yet. Please add new comments below this notice.
