Deletion of Doug Lewis (Royal Navy officer) (2nd nomination)

Comment: while his rank arguably satisfies #2 of  that is just an essay not a policy or guideline despite what certain Users like to assert or imply and he lacks SIGCOV in multiple RS to meet

Comment: Regardless of what people repeatedly claim, we have always held, by  that a flag officer ''is notable'', and he is, in fact, a flag officer. The argument that " is only an essay" is spurious and disingenous - it's |an essay that is written to provide a shorthand for expressing that consensus. I also can't help but suspect that if he was, say, a Bangladeshi one-star, or perhaps one from Uruguay, with the article sourced to exactly the same level, many of the same editors who !vote for deletion of subjects like this would be falling over themselves to !vote keep on the basis of CSB
