This person's only claim to notability was reaching an advanced age and being the oldest man in the UK for a few months. The article offers only anecdotal detail about his life and deeds, failing WP:ANYBIO. He is now too "young" to appear among the top 100 British supercentenarians and world's oldest men. Nothing to preserve. — JFG talk 10:14, 28 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete getting old does not notable make you. Legacypac (talk) 09:30, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete This article fails WP:GNG, WP:BIO1E, WP:NOTINHERITED, and WP:NOPAGE. There is no policy that the "oldest x" is notable and this article is packed with longevity fancruft like he might be able to reach age 130, what his grandchildren do, and how he drank some secret elixir of life to make him live forever or at least a really long time. This entry is ridiculous, and there is nothing to preserve about this man, including this WP:PERMASTUB. Newshunter12 (talk) 10:01, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete notable only for single criteria, similar to other few recently nominated subjects. Rzvas (talk) 08:02, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
