Talk:2012 California State Assembly election

Merge Leslie Daigle here?
That article was recently closed as no consensus, but the closing admin suggested starting a merge discussion, as the person only barely meets WP:GNG and fails WP:POLITICIAN. So, I'm proposing said merge p  b  p  15:36, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

By "merge" do you mean linking the page? If so, I agree with Purpleback's assessment. --Socalpolitik (talk) 20:21, 7 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Oppose – This article (California State Assembly elections, 2012) is entirely in table list format. Merging the article here would have an effect of removing all of the sourced information in the Leslie Daigle article, essentially blocking the public from having access to the information.

If Northamerica1000 is correct, then yes, I oppose the merge of the article. Thanks for the clarification. --Socalpolitik (talk) 18:54, 8 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Support as the closing admin in the AFD noted, a redirect/merge is appropriate in this case. Valenciano (talk) 08:38, 9 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Oppose as per Socialpolitik and North America, also there is a lot of content that is completely irrelevant to the assembly race entry that is not even an article.LuciferWildCat (talk) 05:41, 18 May 2012 (UTC)


 * Comment – Also, the topic "Leslie Daigle" is presently passing both WP:BASIC and WP:GNG, in which this person has received significant coverage in reliable sources. Many of the sources address the subject directly in detail, so no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention but it need not be the main topic of the source material. Due to this, the article is worthy of being a stand-alone article. Merging to this list/table style article would just make the information about the topic unaccessible to the public.
