*'''Keep''' It's widely considered one of the greatest films of all time. I wouldn't be surprised if every character in it has enough scholarly analysis to have a standalone article. Just from a quick search: [https://dergipark.org.tr/en/download/article-file/998556] (search for Bentley), [https://www.google.com/books/edition/David_Lean/uG-5DwAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=Bentley], [https://www.google.com/books/edition/Lawrence_of_Arabia/pai6EAAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=Bentley]. There's also sourced content in [[Lawrence of Arabia (film)]] about the other two actors associated with the role that could be included.

* '''Merge/rename''' to [[Fictional characters in Lawrence of Arabia]] per [[Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Harry_Brighton]]. The sources here are borderline for [[WP:SIGCOV]]. But there is enough reliable coverage to write something about how the filmmakers adapted real life people into [[composite character]]s. It's a rare niche where there is no real life person to merge these characters to, but there are multiple real life people who inspired these characters, and that is reliable information we should [[WP:PRESERVE]]. A list of characters is normal for fiction like this. [[User:Shooterwalker|Shooterwalker]] ([[User talk:Shooterwalker|talk]]) 19:16, 20 January 2024 (UTC) |

*'''Keep''' - The article does not need work but as Jfire said above there are several sources indicating notability. Otherwise, I would support renaming the page to [[Fictional characters in Lawrence of Arabia]] as above.

Fails WP:N. I could barely find any outside, reliable sources about the character. The article itself cites no sources JooneBug37 (talk) 02:51, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
