GNG fail. This was prodded, but the tag was removed by the same user who created it: the article subject's son. COI aside, I do not see what is notable about this guy. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 04:03, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No evidence of meeting notability criteria, article created by family member and reads as a memorial-type page, not an encyclopedia article. Melcous (talk) 04:25, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete nothing notable about him, fails WP:SOLDIER and WP:GNG. Mztourist (talk) 05:11, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No evidence of notability, fails GNG. ThePlatypusofDoom (talk) 08:35, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Article does not pass WP criteria for notability. Fails GNG, SOLDIER and BASIC. There is no significant coverage WP:SIGCOV of this individual. The references are to wedding announcement, memorial announcement and other trivial coverage. The creator has produced numerous COI articles about family members, their businesses, etc. Wikipedia is not a genealogical site WP:NOTGENEALOGY to memorialize one's family tree, there are numerous websites such as Ancestry where this can be done as well as free sites, or if they want a more "official" repository of family history online, they should invest in their own domain name and learn Wordpress or hire someone to make a nice website on their family tree and associated stories of one's ancestor's lives. Wikipedia is not a web hosting service WP:NOTWEBHOST or a memorial service WP:NOTMEMORIAL. Netherzone (talk) 10:52, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - non notable Devokewater (talk) 12:41, 11 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Per Hawkeye7. Non-notable biography. --Jack Frost (talk) 04:28, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
