He worked with George Adamson for nearly 18 years, and is the field director of the Mkomazi Game Reserve, both of which have pages on Wikipedia.

  • Agree speedy delete is way premature, holding the OBE is sufficient in itself for the article not to be deleted. Paste (talk) 19:42, 3 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
    • I also agree, an OBE is sufficient assertion of notability, and have removed the speedy tag (and its associated hangon) tag. If for some unknown reason this article is still felt to be non-notable, a PROD tag or AfD would be the way to go. If anyone has any questions or problems, I'm available via my talk page.
