Non-notable individual, not enough independent sources to verify information and notability. -Nard 22:26, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
- Keep. The article already has multiple references from credible sources which are independent of the subject (eg. The Times, BBC News, Liverpool Echo, Telegraph Newspaper). Additionally, as the Chief Constable of West Yorkshire Police (one of the biggest police forces in the United Kingdom), Bettison is one of the most senior British police officers serving today. On top of that, his role in the aftermath of the Hillsborough Disaster makes him even more noteworthy. Finally, if there are concerns about the veracity of particular statements in the article then the way to proceed is with the use of

- Keep well within scope of Misplaced Pages:Notability (people) (plenty of third-party newspaper accounts, "significant recognized awards or honors" and "has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field").

- Speedy keep. Multiple coverage from independent reliable sources. Kittybrewster ☎ 09:15, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
- Speedy keep - very notable, meets notability, reliable sources, neutral point of view, no original research, verifiability and biography of living persons policies and guidelines. The conflict of interest is the only problem with this article. EJF (talk) 11:06, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
