Leo Blair (senior)

 * First nomination, closed 'no-consensus'
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

may fail WP:BIO. The subject is father to a former British Prime Minister, and a former law lecturer. There is nothing particularly professorly about Leo Blair, and there are few sources on him, as Tony Blair is the major focus. All the content is already in the Tony Blair article. ( Leo Blair redirects to Tony Blair) Ohconfucius (talk) 02:22, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep There are two sources (though only 1 is non-redundant with Blair), but I'd like to see more work done on trawling for his publications and such before this is deleted outright. Ancemy (talk) 03:19, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep given that there are enough sources to write a complete biography of him. He has at least one book to his credit as an author. Capitalistroadster (talk) 04:08, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete subject does not appear to be notable on his own. Dlabtot (talk) 04:59, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Since there are sufficient sources to write a reasonable biography. If it is decided this shouldn't stand alone, there's still a family section in the Tony Blair article in which he'd fit nicely.- Mgm|(talk) 10:09, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep. There are suitable references and this academic is a book author. — Jonathan Bowen (talk) 16:50, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
