Does not meet notability requirements Eastshire (talk) 12:47, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

• Keep - have added refs. He was clearly an interesting character, and for a bio of a long-dead methodist missionary and author there is enough here to say keep.

::The problem I have is the only notable thing he seems to have done is an unpublished translation of Dream of the Red Chamber which is adequately covered at its own page (including a link to the transcript). Under WP:BIO1E it seems he shouldn't have his own article. I will grant you that there are many other articles currently on Methodist missionaries whose sole apparently claim to notability is that they were Methodist Missionaries.

• Weak keep -- Unfortunately there is so little content that it is difficult to judge notability. Tag as stub. Peterkingiron (talk) 15:27, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
• Delete - being a missionary doesn't make you notable, and nor does being dead. The only thing we have is a biographical note by his son. This lacks the multiplicity required by WP:GNG. StAnselm (talk) 01:55, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

• Delete - Coverage is not independent, and indeed almost all related to his translation. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:53, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
• Delete - coverage is not independent or significant in nature. I do not see evidence that persuades me that he meets the notability criteria PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 02:49, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
