Does nothing to assert notability. He is an ordained minister, but that alone is not WP:N. All external links are to a genealogy website, so perhaps the user meant to create it in userspace. Cowback23451 (talk) 20:48, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

• Delete I agree that it doesn't assert notability. The only references listed are to a Family Search Website which is a genealogy research website. Which does not help assert notability. --Clarkcj12 (talk) 20:56, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
• Delete - almost incomprehensible gibberish; no credible assertion of notability. --Orange Mike | Talk 21:14, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

• Delete "in 1896 he helped more that 2 million people get married". That's 2740+ couples a day. Assuming he slept for eight hours he would have had to conduct a service every 19 waking seconds. Not sure why this is even being discussed. Tigerboy1966 (talk) 00:54, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
• Delete: I think it should read: 'He became a graduate of Howard University in 1891 and a minister in 1896. He helped more that[sic] 2 million people get married.' It does sound kind of amusing in its original form, though.--Marjaliisa (talk) 02:57, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
• Delete because it lacks evidence of significant coverage in independent, reliable sources, does not meet the requirements of WP:BIO, and I've been unable to find any appropriate references. As a side-note: Orangemike, I think "almost incomprehensible gibberish" is unnecessarily harsh  Chzz  ►  08:13, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
• Weak keep (or userify) -- At present, all the sources are extracts from the US census records; I have removed one that adds nothing to the rest and located the rest properly in the text. The two million cliam sounds like an exaggeration, probably not referring to a single year, and perhaps the the work of his whole board, rather than just him. However, if the claims about him are correct he ought to be notable. Peterkingiron (talk) 16:56, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
• Delete, no evidence of notability. Sources show existence, but that's it. The claim of "helped over 2 Million people get married in D.C." is extremely vague and seems implausible, and without any sourcing ultimately violates WP:V. --Kinu ^t/_c 03:27, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
• Delete no sources. Askadaleia (talk) 09:12, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
• Delete - if someone performed or officiated at a million weddings, and if it could sourced properly, then that would be notable, but there is no such proof at this moment, and I can't find any online. However, saying that the subject "helped" two million people get married is patently unverifiable -- it is not even wrong. Bearian (talk) 19:21, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
