 * Delete. Notable only for a controversial event. It's a classic WP:BLP1E and he fails WP:POLITICIAN - selected and then deselected as a candidate for a seat that his party had no chance of winning. --Mkativerata (talk) 16:24, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Clear case of WP:BLP1E. Frickeg (talk) 21:50, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
 * (reluctant) Redirect to Australian federal election campaign, 2010 - Typically I avoid "per above" arguments, but here there isn't any more to it: this is a clear case of a person receiving coverage for only one event who does not meet the relevant specific notability guideline. I'm !voteing redirect because Barker receives coverage in Australian federal election campaign, 2010, and that is where readers should be directed if they type "David Barker (politician)" into the search bar.  My reluctance comes from the fact that the target article deals with this subject as a news report rather than an encyclopaedic topic, but at the end of the day, the quality of the target article is not a reason against a redirect.  -- Lear's Fool 01:40, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I guess that it probably is right to delete his page- I only made it because I found it in connection with the Chaser. It is probably doubtful that he will affect the election campaign. I won't touch it again. Definitely delete. (Die Snack 2.0 (talk) 09:37, 4 August 2010 (UTC))
 * Merge/Redirect it to Australian federal election campaign, 2010. Plausible as a search term.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 00:01, 8 August 2010 (UTC).
