Forrest Hill (CA Secretary of State candidate)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Unsuccessful candidate for public office who garnered just 2% of the vote. It seems mainly to be a promotional page at the moment but, even if cleaned up, I still fail to see how it could meet WP:BIO. -- Lincolnite 15:57, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: success or failing of the candidate has nothing to do with WP:BIO. The only thing that matters is: "are there multiple reliable sources to write an article from?" I'll look into whether that is the case. — coe l acan — 16:22, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep: It looks like he's published in several places. CounterPunch carries work by him, as do other sites. Over on WP:WEB there's a criterion that says: "The content is distributed via a medium which is both well known and independent of the creators, either through an online newspaper or magazine, an online publisher, or an online broadcaster". I don't see why that shouldn't apply here too. — coe l acan — 16:36, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Also on board with the Green Institute, a think tank. Bio information there can be used. — coe l acan — 16:47, 9 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep and Rename to Forrest Hill (politician) in keeping with naming polity. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 23:04, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
