 * Delete While it is fascinating to be told that "There is no record that Mr. Wilson ever became a member of the Chartered Institute of Patent Agents.", there is also no record that he ever flew a toothbrush. There is also no record that he was ever notable and none that establishes his notability today - it's mildly shocking this article has survived since 2010 in this state, and tagged at that!

 * Keep, this subject is from the 19th century so let's be careful before recommending deletion. Here's some coverage on this individual . There are contemporary publications to examine as well, but I don't have access to most of them.

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. Gnews has all kinds of people with this name in 19th Century newspapers, none for this fellow. Kudos on never having flown a toothbrush either. Oaktree b (talk) 15:15, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
