Notability of this tailor is exclusively via occasional connection with the Beatles, who just had happened to order suits from him. There are zillions of shops where the beatles went shopping. No in-depth coverage of this guy, just mentions in passing. Notability is not inherited. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:33, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Fashion didn't just happen in London. Andy Dingley (talk) 23:00, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- and how is this related to our notability rules? Namely, which reliable sources speak in depth of influence of Dorn on London fashion? Staszek Lem (talk) 23:09, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - Why would you expect someone based 200 miles away to have an effect on London fashion? Phil Bridger (talk) 13:11, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the guy did not just make any suits he made the suits the Beattle got famous with. This is not hurting anyone and has good sources. Legacypac (talk) 19:22, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Our rule is that notability is not inherited. Many people did many things for beatles and bragged about this. We do not have articles about them. Staszek Lem (talk) 20:21, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  - It's not that he bragged about this, but that other people wrote about it, that shows notability. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:24, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The guy is even on the Beatles tour. There are plenty of references to this guy in various Beatles books confirming his part in the groups outfits. Maybe borderline, but given the mega-notability Beatles, am happy to take a view on it. If a reader heard of this guy clothing the band, wouldn't they expect to find him in WP?

Keep because folks keep writing about this guy, after all these years. And when the sources are there....E.M.Gregory (talk) 15:49, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. There might be coverage in Bill Harry's The Beatles Encyclopedia, page 352. wumbolo ^^^ 21:03, 1 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
