The only reference provided is a broken link. I get 39 Google hits for this name, many of which are drawn from the Wikipedia article. Notability is certainly not asserted in the current article. (He supposedly killed his brother, then became relatively wealthy and gave money to some orphans... This does not make him notable in my eyes.) Bueller 007 ( talk) 00:36, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- Keep - I think references like this and this are enough to verify the content of the article and substantiate notability. St★lwart 111 01:02, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- Comment. Feel free to improve the articles with these references then. Bueller 007 ( talk) 01:05, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

- Yeah, there's no requirement for me to fix articles and this AFD is not the first time you've suggested that articles should be deleted for lack of effort. In reality, the only related policy that applies is WP:BEFORE. Given how many sources can be easily found, I question whether you followed those instructions. I'm thinking this can probably just be closed. St★lwart 111 02:01, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- Pretty sure I didn't say you were "required" to do it. In addition to manners, you might want to work on that reading comprehension, yeah. Bueller 007 ( talk) 02:14, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
- Keep per sources found above as well as here [1] [2] [3] [4]. – Davey2010 Talk 01:52, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

- Keep per Stalwart and Davey2010; though not all of the sources linked are high-quality, most seem to be. הסרפד ( call me Hasirpad) 04:28, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
- Keep Guyana still has a "Saffon" law on the books based the trust left by his will (mentioned in the article, I added a ref to the law). Seems notable enough. — Noah 05:47, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
