Notability

[edit]

I am struggling to see why this appointment is worthy of a article. In fact, there is nothing to suggest it satisfies WP:notability. It isn't a top appointment, such as the Regius chairs, nor is it an endowed chair that warrants its own article. Perhaps it needs more in the introduction but at this moment in time I am inclined to put it up for deletion. Sorry to @Bellot007:, but perhaps you have more information to add to prove it is a notable appointment? For reference, being held by someone notable doesn't mean the chair itself is worthy of an article. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 17:46, 13 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to me that this is a notable/top chair. It has been around for almost 200 years. The position is influential in the UK and the world of classical studies. The Latin chair at UCL is also very important and a noteworthy position. Indeed, a separate article should also be created for the Latin chair. However, I defer to your expertise as an editor, and we can follow your suggestion. Bellot007 (talk) 16:48, 16 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
