[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sir Keith Arbuthnot, 8th Baronet
Keep - although no claim to notability other than his baronetcy.
[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aylesbury Baronets
- Result was Keep, seemingly on premise of promised expansion. Some argument as to whether a baronet is notable, though some acceptance of baronetcies being notable.

[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gillis Baronets
Whilst the articles associated with these deletions are hoaxes, some contributors implied opposition to the inclusion of baronets simply for being baronets, with the usual support coming from others:
- This is not a genealogy service. Seicer (talk) (contribs) 17:26, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
- no interest to anybody who would not prefer a genealogy site over wikipedia AlfPhotoman 22:24, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
- If it was genuine I would be arguing strong keep, it is not however.--Couter-revolutionary 09:46, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Wynn Baronets
Kept after expansion which demonstrated the notability of the family in Wales.
- we've generally recognized the right of such articles to exist. [...] Mackensen (talk) 05:24, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Allen Williamson Grey
The father in law of a baronet is not notable due to that fact. No opposition raised to this point.
