Notability not established for either GNG or Notability (academics). Article is currently a stub, and would be even shorter were irrelevant/unreferenced content to be removed. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 16:03, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

 * Comment. In the context of this AfD, and the similar Articles for deletion/Francois Anglade, it is worth noting that the content of both pages is practically the same. See: . If both subjects are notable for effectively the same things (and their association with the same topic), then why do we need separate articles for either/both of them?

 * Keep, or at least Redirect to St Patrick's College, Maynooth as the subject is mentioned here as an important figure in the early history of the college. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 20:20, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment As pointed out at the deletion debates for Pierre-Justin Delort and André Darré, the wiki-notability guideline for academics is not really applicable to historical figures, being geared instead to evaluating scholars active today. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 00:33, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. There's an entry for him in Encyclopédie des sciences religieuses (1879, 50 years after his death), and another entry in Biographie universelle (1834). His Exposé des motifs is widely held in libraries. I think together with the sources we already have in the article there's plenty of coverage for WP:GNG. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:16, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Weak keep just about meets WP:GNG. -Kj cheetham (talk) 08:00, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep Between what we already had and the biographical dictionaries found by, we have the documentation to justify an article. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 15:06, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep -- The founders of St Patrick's College, Maynooth are notable for founding it. The article has quite sufficient sourcing.  Even a college history, by another academic, ought not to be regarded as independent.  Peterkingiron (talk) 18:04, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep per David Eppstein. Mccapra (talk) 05:40, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
