AJ Griffin (politician)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article about a political hopeful and has received nothing more then routine coverage in regards to a failed bid for a seat and a hopeful run for national. Until they are elected they fail WP:GNG and WP:NPOLITICIAN - McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 03:27, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. As noted above, there is barely any coverage of her in reliable sources. She was not notable before either of her candidacies; her run for MLA didn't generate enough coverage, and her run for MP has not (at least not yet). —C.Fred (talk) 03:34, 25 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete. Being a candidate does not make the subject notable. If she wins, then she's notable and will certainly have an article like every other MP, but until that happens, article should be deleted. Cmr08 (talk) 06:22, 25 August 2015 (UTC)
 * As always, an unelected candidate for office does not get a Wikipedia article just for the fact of being a candidate — if you cannot make a credible and properly sourced claim that she was already notable enough for a Wikipedia article for some other reason besides being a candidate, then she does not become notable enough for a Wikipedia article until she wins the election. This makes no such claim, however, and in fact is a likely conflict of interest if you look at the creator's username. Delete without prejudice against recreation, after the polls close on October 19, if she wins. Bearcat (talk) 16:47, 25 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete as per nom and above editors. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NPOL. Searches showed nothing to merit notability.  Onel 5969  TT me 19:06, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
