William Maldon

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

This one sentence biography article has one good reference. After further searching, unable to find additional sources to establish notability. It is missing Encyclopedia biography information such as Early life, Career, Personal life, Achievements and honours. Created on 6 August 2013. I did ask for help on the article's Talk page.

 * Weak keep: I'm finding occasional reference to the subject in some contemporary and modern sources on the English Reformation. I believe it is this "William Maldon" who shows up in Foxe's Book of Martyrs (see here). Foxe's is not exactly a strictly reliable source, but it does suggest notability. Additionally, the official Seventh-day Adventist publication Liberty has also referenced Maldon's writings (see here). Maldon's account appears to have also been recorded in a book published by Cambridge University Press, A History of the Bible as Literature (a review that mentions Maldon's account can be found on JSTOR here). It's only occasional coverage, but there are instances of SIGCOV. ~ Pbritti (talk) 20:45, 18 July 2023 (UTC)
