Proposed deletion of Marie-France Lalonde


The article Marie-France Lalonde has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. Hitro  talk  20:31, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

Marie-France Lalonde
Please note that per WP:POLITICIAN, the mere fact of being nominated as a candidate in a future election does not, in and of itself, qualify a person for an article on here (especially not one which relies mainly on the party's own press releases for "sourcing".) If you cannot make a compelling case, relying on real sources, that a person was already notable enough for a Wikipedia article before they were nominated as a candidate, then they have to win the election, not just run in it, to become notable enough. The rule, just for the record, is the same no matter what party a person is associated with, so kindly don't mistake this for a partisan attack. Bearcat (talk) 23:53, 31 December 2013 (UTC)
