Notability

I restored the redirect. Recent MilHist RfC concluded w/o arriving at a consensus that flying aces should be considered to be notable. No reliable sources have been presented apart the usual WP:QS literature & a primary-sourced claims table, which is not a sufficient indication of encyclopedic relevance. Here's the RfC in question: RfC on notability of flying aces. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:50, 4 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The RfC didn't arrive at a conclusion. In this case this a high double-digit ace (whereas the RfC was discussion 5+ kills), with ample sourcing. Bring him to AfD if you wish to delete.Icewhiz (talk) 21:11, 12 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
