Amanda Chase

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable politician. As an as-yet unelected candidate for a state senate seat, Chase does not meet the criteria for inclusion as a politician, and the coverage available about her does not go beyond the standard local coverage of a politician. Article was proposed for deletion, but the proposed deletion was rejected by the article author, stating:
 * removed proposed deletion. Mrs. Chase faces nominal opposition in the general election and will very likely, come January, be a member of Virginia's State Senate. I see no problem with creating her page now for the sake of expediency later.

but as Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, we can't create articles based on the presumed future notability of a subject. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 01:03, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

We do that all the time with future candidates for office, do we not? --SoCoVA2NJ (talk) 01:39, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment No, we do not. WP:POLITICIAN sets out fairly clear criteria for inclusion. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:27, 3 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete If she were actually running unopposed a matter of fact, that would be more of an argument, but "nominal opposition" and "very likely" put this firmly into the delete column for me. No objection to recreation after the election, of course, but this is too much soothsaying than I'm comfortable with. CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 04:21, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
