Fails WP:SOLDIER IMO. I can't see anything in this article that makes him notable. This article is more about the USS Maury and hydographic survey achievements than him Gbawden (talk) 10:52, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete - Per nom. Don't believe a merge/redirect is in order since there's nothing really about him to put on the main article on the ship Caffeyw (talk) 18:02, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
 * There is info on the boat not in the boat article and some bits on the person. Should be merged. 19:01, 14 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Merge Gbawden is correct. The article Willard J. McNulty primarily contains extensive sourced information on the USS Maury (AGS-16). This information on the Maury's activities and its sourcing though are critically absent from the Wikipedia article on the Maury, which does not without it even contain a reference list. Captain (naval) McNulty is noted in historical texts and in archives of the Naval History and Heritage Command. A simple redirect, however, can facilitate researchers interested in this of his commands or brief context on him. I have already edited USS Maury to include the missing information relevant to the Maury contained in Willard J. McNulty and its sources and noted, therein, briefly, information on Capt. McNulty's contribution to the Maury'' 's command and, briefly, relevant context on him and created a redirect page Willard J. McNulty (Captain naval USN), which redirects to the article USS Maury (AGS-16), so if this is a satisfactory resolution for the community, the Willard J. McNulty article can simply be Delete.

 * Albeit has merged this into the ship article. I am redirecting. As a satisfactory outcome I think that should conclude this discussion? Candleabracadabra (talk) 13:47, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
