Green Party of Alberta candidates, 2004 provincial election
Page is not nessesary and looks like an abandon project anyway. The list of Green party candidates is avalible else where, such as the Alberta general election, 2004 or individual pages on electoral districts. I would suggest if there really needs to be another list of 2004 candidates, it should be moved to a subsection of the Green Party of Alberta page. Cloveious 07:40, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
 * As an Albertan, I can agree it's redundant. Redirect to Alberta general election, 2004. CanadianCaesar 09:25, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect. As per above. -- Rune Welsh &tau;&alpha;&lambda;&kappa; 14:17, August 1, 2005 (UTC)

 * This kind of thing was specifically proposed and accepted by VfD consensus as a solution to the proliferation of articles on unelected political candidates (specifically given the fact that a small but vocal minority on Wikipedia feels that just running for political office should be deemed sufficiently notable for an article.) Keep on the grounds that articles of this type arose from a VfD discussion in the first place. Bearcat 23:20, 1 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep - this style of page was created after a long discussion as an alternative to creating individual pages for each candidate in an election. Homey 16:51, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep - There are already several pages like this on Wikipedia, and vfd precedent clearly states that their existence is permitted. I grant that this particular entry is somewhat "bare bones", but it has the potential to grow into something larger.  Having a set of mini-bios for future reference certainly won't hurt the project.

 * Keep. Part of the Alberta Greens article as part of a series (1993, 1997, 2001) &#0149;Zhatt&#0149;  22:07, August 5, 2005 (UTC)
