Jack Rankin (British politician)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Somewhat promotional biography of candidate for the upcoming UK election. Fails WP:NPOL and WP:GNG. Coverage is routine for any election candidate. AusLondonder (talk) 14:30, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete. As always, candidates do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates — they must either win the election and thereby hold the seat, or already have some other claim of preexisting notability for other reasons that would already have gotten them a Wikipedia article anyway. But the former hasn't happened, and the latter hasn't been shown here at all. No prejudice against recreation after election day if he wins, but nothing here is already grounds for a Wikipedia article now. Bearcat (talk) 22:42, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Comment. Draftification  might be an ATD to consider here since this is a pretty safe seat for Rankin's party and this would be a good start to an article if and when he is elected to this seat.  Eluchil404 (talk) 01:06, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't think draftspace should be a repository for campaign literature nor a repository for articles on individuals potentially notable one day. AusLondonder (talk) 16:11, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
