Yvan Roy (justice)

Article does probably barely pass WP:JUDGE, but comprehensively fails WP:GNG and should therefore be deleted. This is the overarching consensus, I believe. Paul Vaurie (talk) 06:43, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep: Because the individual holds a federal judicial position, they pass WP:JUDGE, and per WP:SNG this should be sufficient to presume notability. /Tpdwkouaa (talk) 07:27, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep - nominator asserts the subject meets the requirements of an SNG, but fails GNG. Meeting the requirements of the SNG would usually be enough, but I also don't agree that the subject fails GNG. His judgements have been written about, and (almost by default) form part of the enduring historical record because of the combination of single-justice judgements and precedence. But there are also a number of news articles that give coverage to his judicial opinions. In fact, the article has 10 references for 6 lines of text.  St ★ lwart 1 1 1 10:10, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Judges at this level are notable, and coverage can always be found for them if one knows where to look and how to search. BD2412  T 19:49, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
