Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Historical figure
I don't see significant problems with this article. Clearly secondary sources which discuss the (abstract if you like) concept of "historical figure" are to be used instead of picking sources from the ocean of sources which discuss particular figures. Such sources clearly exist, even if they are usually focused on a certain time period or school. But the current article seems to manage to use such sources reasonably well, so I don't see  concerns. This appears an above-par Wikipedia:DAB#Broad-concept_articles|broad concept article
