Keep. We keep all peers per consensus.
See here. Until 1999 all peers were notable anyway per
WP:POLITICIAN as members of a national legislature. For consistency's and common sense's sake, it makes no sense not to have articles on those few who have not sat in the Lords. --

Delete For consistency's sake, we already have articles for all baronies like
Baron Aberconway where this can be redirected/merged. See
Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(people)#Notability_of_peers and
WP:WikiProject Peerage and Baronetage: "There is no consensus that nobility infers automatic notability, and a previous proposal to establish this has failed." An
WP:INHERITED title that once seated one in the house of lords but no longer is therefore no longer automatic notability, exempted from the common sense of requiring significant coverage, or having accomplished something besides a wealthy lineage.

Keep The topic has already been discussed and kept at AfD. As the nomination is mostly personal bias per
WP:IDONTLIKEIT,
WP:DELAFD applies, "It can be disruptive to repeatedly nominate a page in the hope of getting a different outcome."

↑ Fails to make an argument to keep the article, just as there were no arguments in the prior one that even addressed the article itself, just nonsense about automatic notability in violation of
WP:SIGCOV that has not been established in guidelines. There is no ban on renomination six years later as
WP:CCC.

Redirect to
Baron Aberconway. I don't rule out the possibility that sources could be found to establish the subject as notable; the previous AfD suggested that he might be notable as an art collector, but there is nothing in this article about that. If someone wants to try again with better sources to establish notability, that's fine with me. Not having an article about him would not create an inconsistency. After all, there are many other current British barons who don't have articles of their own either; see all the redlinks on
Template:Current Barons of the United Kingdom. --

Merge/Redirect.
WP:NOPAGE applies here. He inherited in 2003 (after the November 1999 changes), and did not sit in the House of Lords.
[1] Nor does his page usefully interlink some number of otherwise unrelated bluelinks. Nor is there sigcov. Inheriting a Picasso is that's been in the family for generations is literally
WP:NOTINHERITED. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~

Redirect to
Baron Aberconway. As this person did not sit in the House of Lords, he does not meet
WP:NPOL. I could find no coverage that would count towards notability, so he fails
WP:GNG. Since the article contains no sourced material, a Merge is not appropriate.

Keep per
WP:OUTCOMES. If we
have a change in consensus, it has to be very clear and I'd like many more !votes, ideally in the 30 to 50 range (pardon the pun). For example when the consensus changed about the automatically notability of high schools and district superintendents. literally hundreds of Wikipedians chimed in.
