Thomas Lee (Snr)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Unreferenced for over two years, fails verifiability policy. Also very close to an A7 speedy as notability is questionable if it even exists. Stifle (talk) 13:43, 18 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete - Per nom. Lack of references, and possibly non-notable. JoshuaD1991 (talk) 14:19, 18 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep or include the information in a footnote at his sons' articles. Rename Thomas Lee (1756 — 1836), as he is himself the son of a Thomas Lee. The formula NN (dates) is a standard for biographical entries in dictionaries and encyclopedia entries, which only our amateurism dismisses at Wikipedia. I have placed less-than-notable father in footnotes of his sons' articles, as an example of how to deal with such marginal figures. No information will be lost if this article is now deleted.--Wetman (talk) 17:16, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge per Wetman's elegant solution. --Joopercoopers (talk) 20:43, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - no claim to be notable --T-rex 19:54, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - not notable himself. add ing info to sons articles should be done if important, but that if for the articles editors to decide.Yobmod (talk) 10:31, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete after following Wetman's solution. The article says he's a "minor architect", not major enough to be here. Mm40 (talk | contribs) 19:21, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
