Christopher Del Borrello

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

Del Borrello has run for a lot of positions, but has never won anything. There's lots about his family, his political positions, his endorsements and contributions, but there is no claim of notability and none of the reliable and verifiable sources needed to back up that claim in the article itself, nor could I find anything more in a Google search.

 * Keep I believe that the sources present are both reliable and verifiable, as many are from popular sources that are verified as unbiased. His coverage in the media should be more than enough to meet WP:GNG. Antny08 (talk) 00:42, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unelected candidates for political office do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates — the notability test at WP:NPOL is holding a notable political office, not just running for one. But the existence of campaign coverage also does not confer a free pass over WP:GNG that would exempt them from having to meet NPOL — every candidate in every election everywhere on earth always gets some campaign coverage, so if that were how it worked then every candidate would get that exemption and NPOL itself would never apply to anybody anymore. So campaign coverage only functions as a bypass around NPOL if it demonstrates a credible reason to treat his candidacy as a special case of significantly greater notability than everybody else's candidacies, but that hasn't been shown here at all.

 * He also is the CCO of the DelBorrello group, a banking institution in Philadelphia. Antny08 (talk) 17:00, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Which is still not "inherently" notable in its own right. Even business executives still have notability criteria that they have to surpass, and are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they exist. Bearcat (talk) 17:03, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

 * This is an article having to do with one of Del Borrello’s businesses. It is written by Politico, a large and trusted source. He is the main talk of the article.

 * Those are both campaign coverage Bearcat (talk) 19:40, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete unelected politicians need to be notable for something other than being a candidate, since almost all candidates get coverage - and he is not (his stint as a hyper local politician does not count.) SportingFlyer  T · C  13:15, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
 * He is the CCO of the Del Borrello group. Antny08 (talk) 17:07, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete Rather ridiculous to think that we should have articles on people because they're compliance officers of small family businesses. CCOs of even massive corporations don't get articles, that's not a notable position, and that's not what sources focus on. There are a lot of losing candidates, and we can't have articles on them because there's some routine coverage of every campaign leading up to the election. Election campaign-related information is welcome to be added to 2023_New_Jersey_Senate_election. Reywas92Talk 20:02, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete this article about an unelected political candidate. There is no plausible claim of notability as a business executive. Bearcat and SportingFlyer have analyzed things well. Cullen328 (talk) 21:59, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Weak delete The reason for "delete" is that 95% of the sourcing is about the failed election bid and there is no solidly GNG source. The "weak" is because there is a bit a coverage about other topics, as well as some prominence of this election evidenced in sources which might put it into "edge case" territory with respect to the norm of how the standard is applied.
