The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process (permalink).
It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.
The first sense should be deleted because we have previously determined that hyphenated double-barreled surnames should not be included. The second sense is for a specific individual of moderate notability, whom I do not think rises to the level of inclusion in a dictionary. bd2412 T 01:12, 29 July 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. Double-barrelled names are SoP; the specific individual is not a "sense of the word" and if anywhere should be in a see-also or something, but really is Wikipedia material. Equinox ◑ 12:18, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
- Delete both per nom: Thomas Cavalier-Smith, Charles Darwin, Winston Churchill, Galileo Galilei, Karl Popper at the Google Books Ngram Viewer. suggests not the kind of notability that would lead to inclusion: Thomas Cavalier-Smith not found. (I am not saying each person found in GNV should be included, but when a person is not there, they are probably not notable enough.) --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:29, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
