As one of the sculptors for Madame Tussauds London, Wiltshire has received some mention in passing in articles about the celebrities whose likenesses appear at the museum, but no in depth coverage to be found. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 13:35, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Weak keep. I think that the recent coverage makes him notable. Would be enough for a historical sculptor. Modern ones are a bit iffy, but his name was mentioned in BBC, NYT... those are big outlets. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 05:52, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment "Mentioned at ..." is hardly the criteria we use for WP:GNG. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 11:53, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
 * At best WEak keep -- Madam Tussauds is clearly notable, but how many sculptors does it employ? The most senior might be notable; the junior ones perhpas not.  Without knowing how senior he is, I cannot be certain which side of the notability boundary to place him.  Peterkingiron (talk) 18:06, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment His seniority is not what determines his notability. The availability of significant coverage does.  And that is lacking.  WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 12:55, 1 April 2013 (UTC)
