There is no mention of this on Google Scholar. I found some WP:PASSING mentions from reliable independent sources on Google books, but that is about it.
The subject clearly does not meet WP:BIO (being the centre of multiple independent reliable sources over time, being remarkable) and therefore should be deleted. Veverve (talk) 12:27, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

- Delete Google newspapers have a hits on other people with this name, nothing about a bishop for lack of sourcing. Oaktree b (talk) 16:13, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

- Keep -- I understand Old Catholic to be a significant denomination, accordingly one of its archbishops ought to be notable. However I have no means of finding out how many Old Catholic congregations there were in New York at the time, so that I have little indication how many members he was overseeing. A lack of mentions in Google Scholar for a cleric in pastoral ministry is not significant. Peterkingiron (talk) 21:34, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Are you saying that GNG and BIO do not apply if the subject is claimed to be Old Catholic? Otherwise, do you have any proof of notability for the subject? Veverve (talk) 03:09, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
- Delete I don't find any independent sources with significant biographical information. There is the one naorcc source with some information, but it is a publication of the church he was part of. There are some non-reliable sources, like the PRA World Biographical Encyclopedia, which seems can be edited by anyone. I wouldn't expect to find him in Google Scholar, but Peterkingiron, can you suggest where we might find reliable sources for an archbishop? Lamona (talk) 05:39, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
