 * Keep Article containing unsourced statement I not valid reason for deletion and neither empty "not notable" is. He passes WP:ANYBIO #3; as the recipient of significant national honor Medal of the Order of Australia which is given to only select individuals with true academic/social achievement. In addition he passess WP:NACADEMIC #2 for Salvation Army Cross of the Order of Distinguished Auxiliary Service another national honor. –Ammarpad (talk) 14:08, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * It has been established multiple times in the past that the Medal of the Order of Australia, while a worthy award, is in no sense sufficient for ANYBIO. It is the lowest honour in the Order of Australia and is routinely given to non-notable people. I am less knowledgeable about the Salvation Army award, but it very clearly cannot qualify for NACADEMIC, which specifies an academic award. Frickeg (talk) 21:14, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Where? When? and at what level of consensus was it established? –Ammarpad (talk) 06:56, 18 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete - I can't find any media coverage of Dr. Davidson's thirty year long effort to catalog schoolboy injuries, or any info archived in medical journals, despite this newsletter article mentioning it.[] There's also very limited coverage of the Medal of the Order of Australia, and certainly nothing that would support keeping the article on the basis of just that award. Short of this necessary supporting coverage, the article fails WP:GNG.
