I don't believe Circuit judges in England and Wales are de facto notable individuals. There are over 600 of these and they rank below high court judges. All of my recent AFD nominations of English and Welsh Circuit judges have reached a consensus to delete, but of course each AFD should still be judged independently. This individual also stood for Parliament but came third. Uhooep ( talk) 01:31, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

- Keep: I created the article and did so because the subject has a dedicated entry in Who's Who (UK). This source was used in compiling the article with details in the Reference section. I have always worked on the basis that this publication is the UK standard on notability and that anyone who was/is notable enough to command an entry is notable enough to pass Wikipedia's notability guidelines. I don't know if this source has been used to define if an individual meets Wikipedia notability but in my view it should be. Obviously some circuit judges are more notable than others and Webster had a political career on top of his legal career which is perhaps why his notability was deemed significant enough for him to be included in Who's Who. I have not taken part in any AfD discussion on the subject of circuit judges so can't comment on others except to say that I would not have been part of any consensus to delete had any of the subjects demonstrated the degree of notability of Webster.
