Oppose. Very clear primary topic by long-term significance over a minor cricketer (who is still playing so obviously has more views per WP:RECENTISM) and a fictional character without his own article. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:11, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support the racehorse trainer has 249 views but the cricketer has 2,449 and the Still Game character has 1,289. Crouch, Swale (talk) 18:25, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per User:Necrothesp. 162 etc. (talk) 02:18, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. I should also point out that not only was he knighted, but he was the first racehorse trainer to be knighted. He has an entry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. His long-term significance clearly vastly outweighs the other two. -- Necrothesp (talk) 08:03, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. The main subject of the article is well-established and important. Waqar💬 16:39, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
