Arlington Baths appears to be the only building which he constructed or indeed help to construct. I felt the page further supported both his father's page and that of the Arlington. I also hoped that further editing may bring to light what structures in Scotland he had been responsible for as a civil engineer.

371:: Unless I am missing something the notability of the subject has not been demonstrated and I would agree that inclusion in the Dictionary of Scottish Architects does not in itself suggest notability. Indeed the DSA article does not suggest the sort of particularly prolific or high profile career that would generally be expected of someone meeting notability requirements. Equally, while his father had some notability due to his position in the Caledonian Railway, notability is not inherited.

As the author of the page I obviously would be a little biased in the assessment to retain or delete. I was interested in
Benjamin Conner and felt he warranted a page due to his involvement in railway infrastructure (perhaps spurred on by his father Benjamin Conner) and also by the intriguing fact

So you mean that qualifies via the "recipient of well-known award or honor"? Does that apply to an organization with 88,000 members? Seems like a rather low bar there... --
