Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/1910 La Laguna's 1st Philippine Assembly district special election


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was no consensus‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__. Another AFD closed as No consensus due to low participation. My suggestion to the nominator is to try again in six months. Maybe by then we'll have more editors participating in AFD discussions. Liz Read! Talk! 05:20, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

1910 La Laguna's 1st Philippine Assembly district special election

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Does not meet WP:NEVENT. It does not satisfy any of the subsections of WP:COVERAGE, nor WP:GEOSCOPE, and is very borderline on WP:LASTING.

In addition, the citations used or otherwise available are exclusively WP:PRIMARY; this contravenes the WP:NOR policy, which prohibits “bas[ing] an entire article on primary sources". Newspaper sources published the same day of the events described are indisputably primary—see WP:RSBREAKING and WP:PRIMARYNEWS for the reasoning.

In conclusion, the article is in contravention of an editing policy and a notability guideline, so any keep votes will need to address that. &#126;~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 16:40, 18 February 2024 (UTC) Relisting comment: I closed this as redirect but have reopened and relisted for further input following a request on my Talk Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Comment: An WP:ATD should be considered, outright deletion would be inappropriate. Curbon7 (talk) 08:22, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Can I ask why ? &#126;~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 18:31, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
 * WP:ATDs should always be sought out if one is available. For instance, election results for national offices is something that is always going to meet the criteria for inclusion, whether as a standalone article or in a collection list (see WP:NOPAGE). In this case, I see this election is listed at List of special elections in the Philippines (without numerical results), so that can be a valid target for redirection if this article is deemed not sufficiently notable as a standalone page.

 * Fair enough. In that case, I support redirecting to that section too. &#126;~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 23:26, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Relisting comment: Relisting, we have some opinions for Redirection and an editor advocating Draftification. No consensus has been reached yet. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 02:04, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Request. I'm the creator of the article, and I've purposely declined myself from commenting. WP:AFD and Wikipedia itself seems to have ever-so declining numbers of volunteers as evidenced by this discussion. As no one cares to comment about this, and I don't think relisting this would work, if ever WP:CONSENSUS is to remove this from mainspace, I'd request for it to be draftified, then delete the link as if it shows up as a redlink. Ergo, no redirects, but the content is saved somewhere. Howard the Duck (talk) 15:48, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
