Ellen Burnes

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I don't see significant, in-depth coverage in secondary sources, outside ordinary levels of campaign coverage, which doesn't satisfy WP:NPOL. (Burnes is one of about a dozen candidates in a primary election in Colorado for U.S. Senate.) Neutralitytalk 13:40, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being as yet non-winning candidates in political party primaries — to pass WP:NPOL, she will have to win the general election next November, and to get an article any earlier than that it would be necessary to demonstrate that she already had preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten her an article on those grounds anyway. But there's literally nothing here that clears that bar at all: this is written like the bog-standard campaign brochure that even NPOL-passing officeholders are still not allowed to have, not like a properly written encyclopedia article, and it's referenced far too heavily to primary sources that are not support for notability and not nearly enough to the reliable kind.

 * Delete. There are other criteria in play than NPOL, but her citation record is not strong enough for WP:PROF and there seems no other claim to academic notability. —David Eppstein (talk) 20:41, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Per WP:NPOL. Xxanthippe (talk) 22:24, 8 July 2019 (UTC).
