Millard Powers Fillmore

Is this person important in his own rights?? I'm sure John Quincy Adams and George W. Bush are, but I don't think this person is. Georgia guy (talk) 23:17, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Completely unrefereced. Possibly made-up. --SeinHenker (talk) 23:46, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Keep He's definitely not made up and lack of references does not mean references do not exist. He got an obituary from the New York Times [1], if admittedly a brief one. He's also discussed at Google Books [2]. Edward321 (talk) 02:16, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
(weak) Keep also. His role in the destruction of his father's papers indicate his notability isn't purely as a president's son, but also (in part) through his own actions and their impact on history. MadScot (talk) 02:52, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Edward321 and MadScot. Per the book cited, he was one of "America's Royalty" :-).John Z (talk) 02:55, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as he became notable by his own actions. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 03:06, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
keep yes a stub, but a keeper.--Paul McDonald (talk) 16:59, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: I did some referencing. Seems notable. ^{XF Law}_{talk at me} 22:57, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and close early WP:SNOW is falling. coccyx bloccyx_(toccyx) 18:43, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to his father (assuming WP:V). Peterkingiron (talk) 19:12, 21 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, but barely. I haven't read the book cited and it seems none of the notable things about the guy are in the entry. Can someone with access to it add something to prove he passes notability? All the entry says is that he was born, lived a dull life, and died.--otherlleft (talk) 00:23, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

done I added a couple of sentences summarising the important elements of the Quinn reference. MadScot (talk) 02:26, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
