To be frank, this article glorifies our subject despite historical scholarship barely documenting sufficient notability to be included within Wikipedia. Some of the sources in the article do not meet Wikipedia standards. Of those that do, some of them are not about our subject at all and are used to source points irrelevant to our subject. The sources which do mention our subject only mention him in passing, never as a separate topic. Article contains a lot of Original Research to make it look like more notable than it actually was, which can mislead people. In connclusion, this article fails WP:N with no significant level of coverage. Jaunpurzada ( talk) 00:15, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

- Delete. The subject fails notability and the sources on the page are poor to unreliable WP:HISTRS with many failing verification with no significant coverage on the subject. RangersRus ( talk) 14:33, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

- Delete The article is confusing and does not show why the subject is notable. Passing mentions collected together does not add to notability or establish a coherent timeline. Vinegarymass911 ( talk) 13:09, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom lacks indepth coverage only Passing mentions. Pharaoh of the Wizards ( talk) 00:48, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
