Could not find significant coverage in independent reliable sources. All sources in article are connected to Keeling or his job. Google News search reveals trivial coverage in local news sources. Morbidthoughts (talk) 01:59, 24 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, He the Leader of a Very important Organization. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DailyJew (talk • contribs) 04:10, 24 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Keeling is a one-star and might be notable, but so far the only sources are RAF and RAF cadet ones. We'd need significant coverage in reliable sources independent of Keeling and the RAF for him to meet the GNG. He is/was a governor at Stamford College, Lincolnshire (which looks like a further education place for 16-18 year olds), see this and has several other claims to fame (mentioned in his Stamford profile, probably provided by him given the detail) such as being a trustee of the RAF Halton Apprentice Trust, a mentor for the Arkwright Scholars, a Chartered Engineer and Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society. Not sure if all of that adds up to much in terms of notability though. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 07:33, 24 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Not notable. Being head of the RAF Cadets is much less notable than being head of the RAF would be. In no way is it "a Very important Organization". Athel cb (talk) 16:06, 24 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Needs reliable coverage outside of RAF and RAF cadets. Paul W (talk) 12:39, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
