Hello. The page in question is about a person regarding whom there are no reliable reference sources available. The article itself is poorly constructed and does not follow the guidelines set for WP:BLP whatsoever. Vinyl Guy (talk) 06:39, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

keep It's a terrible article, but I had no trouble finding sources for something better. And I don't know why BLP is being brought up concerning someone who was active in the mid 1700s. Mangoe (talk) 12:12, 13 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Apologies regarding the BLP part. Novice user here. Meant that the standard guidelines set for a page were not satisfied (poorly sourced, lack of sufficient information, etc). Felt the article was not good at all and could not find better, authoritative sources. Given that, felt it was appropriate to ask for deletion. If you have found better sources, well and good.

Speedy keep--Ample amount of significant coverage in books.I fail to understand the relevance of BLP and this's a pathetic failure of attempting to source the article.~ Winged Blades^Godric 03:18, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep Have added sources to the article. A cursory search on Google brings up plenty of book references, @Vinyl Guy: please have a look at WP:BEFORE. FITINDIA 17:36, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
