No independent notability besides this person's reaching an advanced age. His entries on the List of the verified oldest men and List of oldest people by country are sufficient. — JFG talk 16:59, 20 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete/redirect WP:NOPAGE. Almost entirely longevity trivia. EEng 19:57, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete This article blatantly fails WP:GNG, WP:BIO1E, and WP:NOPAGE. There is no policy that the "oldest x" is notable and this article is packed with longevity fancruft like a list of claimed records, a list of different nick-names, and someone once wrote a birthday song for him. His name, life dates, and nationality are best handled on the two lists they already reside on. This WP:PERMASTUB is not needed. Newshunter12 (talk) 01:52, 24 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep I find plenty of coverage for some years before he died. The Barbados government considered him a national treasure ; the street he lived on was renamed after him, during his life ; he is acknowledged as a source of information by the author of the book Empire and Nation-Building in the Caribbean: Barbados, 1937-66 (Oxford University Press, 2013) ; he took part in genetic studies of longevity ; and he appeared on a stamp . We are not judging the quality of the article, but the notability of the subject of the article. He meets WP:GNG. RebeccaGreen (talk) 11:43, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree he may very well be notable, but NOPAGE still applies. EEng 12:47, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
 * How do you know? Have you looked at all the available sources? RebeccaGreen (talk) 14:30, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes. EEng
 * Delete/redirect per the nomination and EEng. There's basically nothing here of substance. The Blade of the Northern Lights ( 話して下さい ) 13:43, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
