- Delete The article itself makes no claim to notability for Pleydell-Bouverie. My own searches uncovered nothing to indicate he is notable. Best I could find was a 2020 article from the deprecated Daily Mail - about his half-sister being jailed for assaulting police. That's saying something - this fails ]
- Delete when the best we can find is a tabloid article about a relative being jailed that incidentally mentions a person they do not meet any reasonable understanding of having the level of secondary source coverage we need to justify an article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:23, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
