The result was delete. Creation of a redirect to Tarnak Farm incident is at editorial discretion. I don't, offhand, see anything here that cries out to be merged to that article (which seems to be more detailed than this one); but if anyone wants the text of this article userfied, with an eye to merging some of its content, just ask on my talk page.

Subject of article does not meet WP:GNG or WP:SOLDIER. He is adequately covered in the article Tarnak Farm incident. Big_iron (talk) 11:22, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep. Tarnak farm incident only desribes him as a major. Also, it would be helpful if you pointed out why the subject article doesn't meet policies. Regards, The Lightning Strikes! Try me! 11:49, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
 * There has been substantive coverage of the Tarnak Farms incident; there has not been significant coverage of the person outside of the event. Other than that event, the article only says about the person that he was a major who is a pilot in the Illinois Air National Guard. --Big_iron (talk) 15:47, 24 August 2014 (UTC) See also WP:BLP1E.

 * Just remember, we can always change the article, so edits may cause it to be kept. Salutations, The Lightning Strikes! Try me! 20:43, 24 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Weak delete. Seems to fail WP:SOLDIER, and is notable only for one incident, so WP:ONEEVENT - I don't see why we shouldn't merge it back to the event article. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 12:06, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete Clearly fails WP:BLP1E as Umbach is only known for his role in the Tarnak Farm incident. Nick-D (talk) 11:07, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Tarnak Farm incident. Only notable for this one incident. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:20, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:BLP1E. Content worth keeping from this short article can easily be accommodated in the Tarnak Farm incident article at any time before deletion. Dcs002 (talk) 08:30, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete or redirect to Tarnak Farm incident; otherwise, not notable enough standing alone. Kierzek (talk) 13:31, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
