 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Unsuccessful Greens candidate for the Western Australian state election, 2008. She did well, but it is not clear that the normal practice of deleting unsuccesful candidates after elections, should not be followed. Grahame (talk) 04:03, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete, it doesn't appear she has yet done anything notable apart from just being a candidate.-- Lester  05:40, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. She is notable as the face of a very popular campaign against a local development, which is explained in the article. Her (second) election attempt at this seat is notable in that it is the first time that the Greens have come anywhere near winning a lower house seat in a general election. Note: I did create this article, so I would like the work that I put into it to be spared, but I don't have any connection to her. I won't be offended if the community doesn't agree with me though ;-) Sumthingweird (talk) 13:56, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete, a well-written article, and she does appear to be active in WA as an activist. That said, she came third in an election, and there doesn't seem to be any significant third-party coverage concerning her.  Note to the article creator that if the article is deleted, I'll be happy to move a copy into your userspace so you can find further references and try resubmitting at a future date, if you wish.
