John A. O'Keefe (judge)

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

Lacks notability. It’s also a one sentence article that was last updated 4 years ago. Note that WP:JUDGE is a necessary but not sufficient criteria for notability. NM 03:45, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Update: Also nominating to delete, and  for the same reason. NM 05:49, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete - no refs to establish notability. Most similar judges don't have articles: Federal Court of Canada.

 * Comment. Do judges of the Federal Court of Canada fall under the criteria of WP:JUDGE? I would have thought that judges of the Federal Court of Appeal certainly do. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:45, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Final relist. I'd like to see a stronger consensus here and the questions raised demonstrate a lack of clarity about notability about individuals holding the position of judge. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 03:44, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete - seems to lack sufficient references. - Indefensible (talk) 05:03, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. All are automatically notable under WP:JUDGE. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 07:24, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Hmm. Per WP:JUDGE, holding office is only, which is WP:BASIC that these articles fail at. NM 18:48, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete: I agree with NM's interpretation of WP:JUDGE. Per the additional criteria, meeting one or more does not guarantee that a subject should be included. In this case, there appears to be zero secondary coverage of the four nominated judges. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/him)Talk to Me! 14:12, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
