Richard C. Caesar

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Fails WP:BASIC and WP:ANYBIO. This person was one of the 922 pilots of the Tuskegee Airmen, and the sources listed to support notability are mostly blogs and an obituary from a funeral home. The only reliable secondary sources with biographical details cited in the article are this, where there are five sentences about him, and this, where there are two sentences.

 * Delete fails WP:BASIC as detailed in nom. Just being a Tuskegee Airman does not establish notability. Based on the sources provided it seems his first wife was more notable than him. Mztourist (talk) 08:43, 30 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete Pretty much all of the reliable sources are mentions of the subject's wife. As was the case with many of the articles for WWII members of E Company, 506th Infantry Regiment (see: Articles for deletion/Robert Rader, Articles for deletion/Dewitt Lowrey), passing mentions and being a member of a well known unit does not equal notability.

 * Delete Per nom. Just not seeing enough about the subject on his own. Intothatdarkness 13:48, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
