Non-notable by WP:DIPLOMAT ("Diplomats who have participated in a significant way in events of particular diplomatic importance that have been written about in reliable secondary sources.")
This afd is similar to 2 Category:Norwegian diplomat stubs articles sent to Afd yesterday ( Jostein Helge Bernhardsen, Olav Berstad), and 2 Category:Asian diplomat stubs ( Miyoko Akashi, Khalnazar Agakhanov) sent today, that may be non-notable. AFAIK Blake, like most other diplomats, has never been involved in an “event of particular diplomatic importance”.
The intention of these Afds is to see whether diplomat biographies should be subject to the same rigorous conditions for establishing notability as other articles on writers, artists, scientists, politicians, sportsmen etc., or whether they are ‘automatically notable’ irrespective of their personal achievements.
