to List of general authorities of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints#Emeritus. Proposals to exempt LDS leaders from  have failed to achieve consensus support in Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(people)/Archive_2014#Religious_leaders|2014, Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(people)/Archive_2016#Leaders in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and other religious organizations|2016, Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(people)/Archive_2017#Exception Proposal for General Authority Seventies of the LDS_Church|2017, and Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2018 August 3|2018. Article relies on sources that are not independent under  (''Ensign'', ''Liahona'', ''Meridian'', ''Church News'') and do not count toward establishing notability. Search does not find  in independent reliable sources. There are brief quotes from the subject in independent RS about how LDS members would not be proselytizing at the SLC Olympics, and quotes from his presentation in routine coverage of a meeting celebrating the church's 1978 decision to stop excluding members based on skin color. But those aren't significant coverage ''of'' this subject. So the subject does not seem to pass . A sensible alternative to deletion is to redirect to List of general authorities of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints#Emeritus, where information on the subject already exists. Open to alternatives if in-depth coverage emerges
