Fails WP:SOLDIER and WP:GNG. One award of the Navy Cross and a rank of Captain (United States O-6) doesn't make him notable. His role as namesake of the planned USS Quentin Walsh can be set out on that page Mztourist (talk) 16:30, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep Although one award of the Navy Cross and a rank of Captain (United States O-6) doesn't make him notable per WP:SOLDIER, he did play an important part in a notable event, which has attracted WP:GNG coverage, and there is clearly sufficient material to construct a good article about him.

 * By notable event do you mean D-Day? Was his role really "important"? Mztourist (talk) 04:08, 15 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Redirect to USS Quentin Walsh. SOP for people who don't pass SOLDIER, but do have a ship named after them. Clarityfiend (talk) 04:44, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to article about namesake ship. Intothatdarkness 20:03, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete not even close to being notable. I see no evidence that his role in D-Day was "an important part".John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:30, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
