CAPTAIN RAJU (T) 05:17, 21 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] There is a long paragraph about him in the DNB article about his brother George Vining .  The article is probably worth retaining since it can be expanded (which I intend to do, since I created the WP article George Vining ).

The page has been improved with references that seem to show he satisfies the requirement for notability (Note: Find a Grave , although it's generally accurate, I find, is a bit like IMDb, and not accepted as a source on this Wikipedia ).

He has an article in the ODNB and in Boase's Modern English Biography: [54] [55] .  These are the standard biographical dictionaries.  There is a biography in Roach, listed here: [56] .  Profile in The Theatrical Times : [57] .  Obituary in The Era , 11 June 1871, p 11: [58] .  Both cited by Boase.  There is other coverage: [59] [60] [61] [62] [63] [64] [65] .  He was "well known": [66] .  There is a lot of other coverage, including, amongst other things, coverage of his performances, and even a garotte attack on him in 1867, in the British Newspaper Archive.  Our article already even cites his obituary in the Birmingham Daily Gazette : [67] .  A newspaper article from 1871 does not become a "blog post/database entry" just because it is quoted on a website.  There is no indication that there is anything wrong with the Biography of the British Stage , which is cited by other sources (including 40 articles in the ODNB) that are certainly reliable.  Praise, even when very enthusiastic, is not the same thing as promotion.  It certainly is significant coverage, and it would be perfectly obvious which Mr Vining the book is talking about, even if that fact was not confirmed by this: [68] .

This actor is notable enough to have several reviews written about him and, although not all favourable, it is not clear where the full breadth of information about him is published if not on Wikipedia .  Tithon ( talk ) 00:13, 31 January 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep .  A scholar or author will find this article a godsend when writing a footnote.  Just because he's deeply historically obscure, doesn't lessen his notability.
