I looked at all 8 accessible sources listed in the references. None of them mention Kensy. I also did a google search for "Baron von Echlin" and could not find any suitable sources. DrKay (talk) 12:19, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The page is translated from already existing german page Rainer Kensy von Echlin -- will the German page also be deleted? Kellycrak88 (talk) 18:45, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Kellycrak88 no, that would take a separate discussion at de-wiki. They consider notability somewhat differently than we do, so I'm not sure if they'd also delete it if it were nominated there. People translating articles from de-wiki to en-wiki run into this problem fairly often. -- asilvering (talk) 20:08, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: the sources lack sufficient WP:DEPTH to justify an article, if anybody knows German, I suspect their article would probably also warrant a delete. Allan Nonymous (talk) 22:19, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as above. Celia Homeford (talk) 10:13, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete does not appear to be notable. Keivan.f^Talk 03:14, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for two reasons: 1) he’s not automatically notable, because since the 17th century, Barons not living in Scotland are not members of Parliament, and 2) there is a lack of significant coverage in reliable sources: either they are passing mentions or not independent of the subject.

If kept, perhaps the hagiography should be amended to include his conviction to four years of prison for fraud and related crimes[1], as reported in quite a few media reports[2]. Fram (talk) 07:30, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
