BLP, Fails GNG and NBIO. Sources in article and BEFORE found nothing with WP:SIGCOV from WP:IS WP:RS addressing the subject directly and indepth. BLPs require strong sourcing. Ping me if sources are added to article that meet WP:SIGCOV and are not routine mill news.  // Timothy :: talk  05:58, 23 January 2024 (UTC) Relisting comment: Previous WP:PROD candidate, ineligible for soft deletion.

 * Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can write and source something better than this. The Provincial Court of Manitoba is the lower trial court, meaning that serving on it isn't an "inherent" notability freebie in and of itself — it's a level at which a judge can have an article if he clears WP:GNG on his sourceability, but doesn't get to have an article if he doesn't clear GNG on his sourceability.

 * Delete: Searching ProQuest only found mentions of him regarding criminal cases he presided over and that retired in 2021. S0091 (talk) 16:44, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Provincial Court of Manitoba and create an anchor for John Combs in the table of former judges: My BEFORE search turned out the same as Timothy and S0091. I propose redirecting as an ATD. voorts (talk/contributions) 18:42, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Redirect make sense. Pinging @Bearcat and for their opinion.  S0091 (talk) 19:00, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't feel particularly strongly about whether a redirect is necessary or not, but wouldn't raise an objection if that was the consensus. Bearcat (talk) 17:13, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
