The result was speedy keep. The nom hasn't even bothered with searching for sources as these have all been nominated within seconds of each other. No objections to speedy renomination by anyone except the nom. (non-admin closure) –Davey2010^Talk 01:37, 19 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

No legacy, whether positive or negative. Delete 45sixtyone (talk) 02:55, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Legacy confirmed by entry in Who's Who (UK). Passes WP:POLOUTCOMES as he received national press coverage for his by-election candidacy. Also passes WP:ANYBIO#1 for receiving Croix de Guerre. Graemp (talk) 08:37, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment What about Liza_Gordon-Saker (Circuit judge), Laurence Marshall (Circuit judge), Peter Carr (Circuit judge), Jane McIvor (District judge), Jonathan Radway (District judge), Peter Bowsher (QC), Charles Sherrard (QC) etc? All are listed in Who's Who (UK) but were all recently deleted via AFD as they were determined not sufficiently notable. Law is not the only profession in which I believe Who's Who lists individuals who should not be de facto included here. Other examples of where I don't believe Who's Who inclusions meet our notability criteria in a de facto sense are private school headteachers another AFD example here and low ranking diplomats (below the rank of Ambassador/High Commissioner (in the UK sense)) to name but a few.

Comment Robson was not a judge, diplomat or headteacher so the comment you make seems to me to lack relevance. Graemp (talk) 21:15, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
