• Redirect to Tony Blair. Average Earthman 12:59, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Delete or redirect to Blair. Timrollpickering 13:29, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Delete. Wikipedia is not a British tabloid. -- WOT 18:53, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Delete. Non-notable kid. — Gwalla | Talk 19:08, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• When I first came across this article, I wondered if it was a valid article. However, as the only child to be born under a serving British prime minister, I think there is some notabilty. I don't think many people in Britian don't know who Leo Blair is. I'm going to abstain for now. Darksun 19:33, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. The son of the British Prime Minister. Should we delete Laura Bush as well? Mark Richards 22:27, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. Clearly within our bounds of notability. Gzornenplatz 22:37, Sep 28, 2004 (UTC)
• Weak keep. [[User:Gamaliel|Gamaliel Image:Watchmensmiley20.gif]] 23:17, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Comment: Kathryn Blair was put up on VfD a few weeks ago but survived. I'd be inclined to delete but surely the notability of Kathryn Blair is less than Leo, who was a figure of political controversy over his MMR and notable as the first child of a sitting Prime Minister since 1851.Dbiv 23:18, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. Obviously notable. James F. (talk) 23:58, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• If Barbara and Jenna Bush are notable enough to have an article then so should Leo Blair be. Keep. -- Graham ☺ | Talk 00:27, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Keep, if Kathryn survived Leo should as well. - SimonP 00:57, Sep 29, 2004 (UTC)
• Keep - notable enough. --DMG413 01:07, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Delete. Not notable enough. --Improv 12:19, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. Sarge Baldy 12:34, Sep 29, 2004 (UTC)
• Keep Wolfman 16:02, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• The first child born to an incumbent Prime Minister of the UK since 1851? I'd say that's notable enough to keep. Bearcat 23:35, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)

I was going from memory - turns out to be July 11, 1849. Dbiv 01:08, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)

• keep—weak, weak, weak keep. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith (talk)]] 01:42, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. What Daniel said, except with less impressive formatting. GWO 18:23, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
