Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Silas Baker, Sr.
Just being a soldier in a notable war is not an inherent claim to |notability. According to Wikipedia's article on the American Revolutionary War, there were 20,000 American regular soldiers and 230,000 American militia who served in the Revolutionary War. Their achievements were collectively notable, but that does not mean we need to have articles about every single one of them. As Brianyoumans mentions, much of this article does not even pertain to Silas Baker personally, and the parts that do pertain to him have relatively little information about his experience in the war
