John Elwes (miser)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Duplicate article of John Elwes. Contains no info that is not in the politician article. Lacking the refs and pictures of the politician article. Someone proposed a merge, but I could not really find any info that was not in the politician article already. Also, the miser article is just the text of http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Elwes,_John_%28DNB00%29 taken without any changes. Marjaliisa (talk) 05:50, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. This article already exists in a better laid out format. I'd suggest that it be speedy deleted per A10, but this was made back in July and I'm not sure if that's too long ago for a speedy. 10:29, 14 November 2011 (UTC)tokyogirl79

 * Delete in favor of John_Elwes_(politician). I'm not real comfortable doing an A10 here, but there is certainly no need for both articles - and the other title is the less troublesome. Miser, near as I can tell, is not any sort of actual profession. UltraExactZZ Said~ Did 13:17, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - the article already exists and is fairly good. If someone can smerge material, I'd be fine with that. Bearian (talk) 20:52, 16 November 2011 (UTC)
