I have added the Notability template to this article. It is unclear that Mr Cotton meets WP:GNG or WP:BIO. He does not appear to be professionally notable as an attorney. Although sources exist relating to his presidency of the NRA, these are generally framed in terms of the NRA, not Mr Cotton himself. Being NRA President does not inherently confer notability (many Presidents do not have an article) in the same way being related to a notable person does not confer notability (WP:BIOFAMILY). I would appreciate any evidence of his wider notability as the article appears to be a candidate for merging or deletion. Hemmers (talk) 14:21, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
