NOT MEMORIAL No evidence of individual notability by WP:MILHIS or otherwise. The references and bibliography are either mere notices, or very general. DGG ( talk ) 08:35, 28 September 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Comment: The decorations on his gravesite seem to be the most notable aspect. If the article is retained, these details should be moved to the start of the intro. If the article is deleted, it would be good to see these details moved elsewhere, perhaps to Gallipoli_campaign#Graves and memorials? Thanks. Meticulo ( talk) 13:57, 28 September 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per WP:NOTMEMORIAL and an almost complete reliance on primary sources. Just one of the tens of thousands of WWI dead. We need to see significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources independent of the subject. Peacemaker67 ( click to talk to me) 08:19, 29 September 2019 (UTC) reply
