Delete: I completely fail to see any claim to notability here. Relatively minor rank, no notable achievements, and no notable appointments. Delete. Bristolbottom (talk) 18:32, 21 September 2014 (UTC)


 * keep but there are reliable sources. No valid reason for deletion. The nominator seems to have a WP:COI with User:MJT21.--114.81.255.41 (talk) 11:56, 22 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. Recipient of the CBE, which clearly meets WP:ANYBIO #1 (and has always been held to at AfD). Getting a bit fed up with this editor's scattergun nomination of people who clearly meet our notability guidelines. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:59, 22 September 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep Clearly the new editor (first edit 30 August 2014) who made this nomination is unfamiliar with the notability guidelines. Keep per Necrothesp. --Bejnar (talk) 05:53, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep. CBE satisfies criteria 1 of WP:ANYBIO. James500 (talk) 13:17, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
