Delete. This page was previously kept after a deletion review, however the article now fails to meet the notability requirements as set out in WP:POLITICIAN and WP:BIO1E.

 * Keep President of a national student union is notable--and in this case, particularly because he engaged in nationally noted events. Since he was notable for what he did in 2005, he remains notable always. We're an encyclopedia, not just a current events web site.  I do not  see how anyone who has looked at the article can fail to notice there is indeed a source present, & one that shows his presidency, which is not peripheral. Needs more sources of course,, and they're right there in Google News Archive. .  .  DGG ( talk ) 00:20, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment From my perspective, the subject was not notable "for what he did in 2005", but the events occuring at the time (the introduction of Voluntary student unionism were notable. Australian Matt (talk) 09:45, 21 February 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete Student politicians are not notable, not unless they stage a riot or something, NN  YellowMonkey  ( vote in the Southern Stars and White Ferns supermodel photo poll )  06:12, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Despite its pretensions the NUS isn't well known to most university students, and its office holders receive little to no coverage in reliable sources so notability isn't established here. Nick-D (talk) 07:20, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
