Nathaniel West (British Army officer)

Not the slightest mention of notability in the article, except the title which states he is a British Army officer. I assume that his name appears in the books cited merely because his family is notable Montchav (talk) 14:52, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 13:18, 4 January 2008 (UTC)


 * Youngest child of a baron does not seem to me to be notable, unless he was the one to inherit. That did not happen in this case. In the absence of further notable detail, delete. Emeraude (talk) 14:18, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Significance appears to be primarily genealogical. --Dhartung | Talk 19:13, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - doesn't appear to satisfy WP:BIO at present, but insertion of more sources and a better assertion of notability may help change it to a keep. But seen as the creator isn't around anymore, this is unlikely. Rt . 19:16, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Weak keep - this is not the usual bio-stub for some NN peronsage. Unfortunately the articel is so short that it is impossible to tell whether he is notable or not.  However the long list of citations holds promise.  Peterkingiron (talk) 23:09, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
