 * Keep At a first glance doesn't seem too notable, but looking him up I found many sources:         |Chicago Tribune |an academic journal discussing him   | A book       |Chinese |New York Times  |french. Honestly this guy has been covered so much, I didn't even include the ones on the article. I think he passes WP:GNG easily. AlessandroTiandelli333 (talk) 11:23, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I hope you don't mind - I removed "liquiseach" from your list above. That site is a simple mirror of Wikipedia and it undermines your position. Kuru   (talk)  14:31, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep - Turner's actions had historical significance, and as AlessandroTiandelli333 showed, he was and still is widely covered by reliable sources.--Tdl1060 (talk) 02:24, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
