Delete: largely incomprehensible stub copied and pasted from this site (here) Quis separabit?  03:37, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep: The original version was awful, but WP:BEFORE really applies here given what's available (and visible but poorly or not available) on the web, and there are definitely references to inaccessible sources (and there should be more offline). Anyway, I've expanded the article significantly (still needs obvious work). undefinedHydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)  08:55, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep, as the updates by Hydronium Hydroxide explicate the notability. I had a look at the copy&paste issue, but found it's Mirrors and forks/Vwxyz. Rms125a, you really need to start doing cursory searches for these topics that you want to nominate for deletion - Google Books says 40 books talk of this person, so WP:POTENTIAL is clearly there, you should instead mark for cleanup. --Joy &#91;shallot&#93; (talk) 11:56, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep, the article looks OK now and notability seems unquestionable (WP:SOLDIER). GregorB (talk) 13:17, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep clearly meets GNG in terms of multiple sources independent of the subject, as well as SOLDIER. Also has a profile in "Who was Who in the NDH" page 268. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 22:32, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:HEY, nice work on improving the article by ! Notability well established now. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:46, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
