Adam Cote article (or lack thereof)
Greetings! I see you reference the original deletion criteria, which I assume refers to Articles for deletion/Adam Cote, in your request for unprotecting of the title at Talk:Adam cote.

For the article to be unprotected, the easier path is to prove that something has changed about him. As noted in the AfD, if he wins his primary, then that would be enough notability to warrant creating an article about him. If he meets the notability guidelines, and if you have reliable sources to back that up, then an article can be created.

You could submit the deletion to deletion review, but that focuses on the procedural aspects of the AfD and not necessarily the merits of the article subject. The deletion may likely be upheld there.

If you think that he warrants an article, you can also create a prototype article in your user space, e.g. User:Bluedog2008/Adam Cote. Then we can review the text of that article and either identify shortcomings with it or, if it's up to par, move it into article space. —C.Fred (talk) 14:02, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
