Contested PROD - this person's only claim of notability is unsuccessfully standing in two elections. WP:V isn't a problem, but I'm not convinced we have enough coverage for a biography here. Michig (talk) 08:35, 8 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete can't find significant coverage in third-party reliable sources. The first reference currently cited says This one-or-the-other approach fits into the theory of Darren Peters, a financial consultant who ran unsuccessfully for the Progressive Conservative Party in Hillsborough in 2000, and for the Conservatives in the successor riding of Charlottetown in 2004, before quoting him on the politics of the region. One sentence isn't significant coverage. The second one merely says Tory Darren Peters, a financial consultant, took 31 percent, which isn't significant coverage either. Other potential references, such as, don't go further than saying that he contested the election and lost. Doesn't meet the additional criteria of WP:POLITICIAN either because he lost the election.
