it is hard to tell because there are other people with similar names, but it appears that his only claim to notability is that he was the child of someone else notable. There's no real evidence that he meets the notability criteria on the page and I haven't been able to find anything much in any sources JMWt (talk) 16:41, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Fails WP:SIGCOV. I would have suggested redirecting to the Miehle Printing Press & Manufacturing Company (later merged to become Miehle-Goss-Dexter Inc. which is now Goss Holdings, Inc.), which is notable, but we have no article. We also could probably use an article on Robert Miehle and the notable press he invented. Bentley's life and papers are probably of value to researchers on the Miehle Printing Press & Manufacturing Company, but he himself doesn't appear to have been particularly notable.4meter4 (talk) 15:42, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
