Not seeing anything here that satisfies WP:BIO or WP:GNG. He worked in the Fairview school system a long time, but that's about it. Wikipedia is not a WP:MEMORIAL. Clarityfiend (talk) 01:23, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

- Delete No evidence of notability. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 05:25, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. A number of more notable "Robert W. Morrison"s are out there (e.g. Robert W. Morrison Sr., emigrant from the Highlands, and his descendants: the genealogy of a P.E.I. family, 1831-1978, or a 1958 Gubernatorial candidate). This particular one - does not seem notable in a BEFORE, and sourcing in article (a single obit (both refs go to the same place) in dailyindependent (which does actually seem to be local coverage and not paid)) is far from sufficient to show SIGCOV.Icewhiz (talk) 09:49, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete, No evidence of notability for stand alone article. WP:Memorial applies. Kierzek (talk) 20:13, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete. An obituary in a local newspaper, with no claims of significance, is not enough for WP:GNG, and that seems to be all we have. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:44, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete per all of the above. If some indication of notability does turn up, we should clean up some close paraphrasing from the cited source in the article. EricEnfermero (Talk) 02:48, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
- Delete high school teacher, sports coach, school board member, none of this is the stuff of notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:40, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
