James Adamson (soldier)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Contested prod with no justification of BLP of soldier with no significant claim to Notability. Many individuals get gallantry awards, and only the highest award recipients are notable in of themselves per WP:MILPEOPLE Sadads (talk) 00:37, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. Third-level gallantry awards like the MC are not sufficient on their own for an article, although multiple awards may be. Junior officer with no other claims to notability. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:37, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete with out question a brave soldier, but unfortunately the subject does not appear to have recieved "significant coverage" in reliable sources. Therefore it likely that he is not notable under WP:GNG. Regardless there is no reason why this infomation could not be included in another article, else where on wikipedia. For instance is there an article on the battle/action in which Adamson fought? Or even his unit? These might be suitable places to include this information, although care would need to be taken to not introduce undue weight to it. Anotherclown (talk) 21:29, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
