• An interesting man, but the article appears to be too short for consideration. DYK Check shows 1371 characters of readable prose, short of the required 1500 characters. There are also sourcing issues: in some places there are issues with close paraphrasing with the single source. EricEnfermero ^HOWDY! 06:05, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

• I've notified the nominator. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 00:26, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

• Finding sources for Southcott is not easy and not that many other people seem to be interested. I am happy to withdraw this one and try again with another article.Inwind (talk) 13:02, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
