  • Keep A warship was named after him which is a "significant award or honor and so passes WP:ANYBIO. Andrew🐉( talk) 18:42, 23 January 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to USS Bangust. Fails WP:SOLDIER (Aviation Machinist mate 2nd class posthumously awarded a Navy Cross. Having a ship named after him during WWII is not a "significant award or honor") and WP:GNG. No SIGCOV in multiple RS so not notable. Mztourist ( talk) 03:40, 24 January 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Merge to USS Bangust. I concur he doesn't meet NBIO/NSOLDIER but there is some mergable content here (but unfortunately not footnoted). The ship can have a section about its non-notable namesake.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:35, 24 January 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect and Merge to USS Bangust, it's more appropriate to have relevant information about a ship's namesake in the ship's article than a completely separate article. Best, GPL93 ( talk) 14:17, 28 January 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Merge into USS Bangust, not enough significant coverage to pass WP:GNG, and doesn't meet WP:NSOLDIER. Onel5969 TT me 18:26, 30 January 2021 (UTC) reply
  • Redirect to USS Bangust, fails GNG. Cavalryman ( talk) 02:44, 2 February 2021 (UTC). reply
