Iain Walker: I don't believe the predominantly passing mention and primary sources here pass WP:GNG .  Uhooep ( talk ) 13:13, 30 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep ; ambassadors are indeed not inherently notable.  UK High Commissioners, however, often are.  A quick search reveals enough for this man to be regarded notable.  𝕎. 𝔾. 𝕁.

Thanks, Hey man im josh ( talk ) 14:23, 13 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Question: @ W.G.J. , why would a UK high commissioner be notable when regular ambassadors are not?  Isn't a high commissioner essentially just an ambassador to a Commonwealth country?  Our High commissioner (Commonwealth) article says: "In the Commonwealth of Nations, a high commissioner is the senior diplomat, generally ranking as an ambassador, in charge of the diplomatic mission of one Commonwealth government to another."  Does this mean the high commissioner to Ghana is more notable than ambassadors to America, France, Germany, Spain, Russia, China, etc.?  Thanks, -- A. B. ( talk • contribs • global count ) 03:40, 14 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Not more notable.  just a naming convention.  LibStar ( talk ) 03:43, 14 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] No, my bad.  I wrongfully interpreted "ambassador" in the original nomination as "diplomat", a member of a diplomatic envoy that is not by default the highest-ranking.  However, I still do believe that the highest-ranking representatives, such as High Commissioners, do enjoy a particular notability but I understand that that could be put up to discussion.  𝕎. 𝔾. 𝕁.
