Does not appear to meet WP:BIO. The cited sources either don't mention Diaz or only name him as a member of a Chicago school council of some sort. This means he appears to fail WP:SIGCOV, and besides that the council in question is not itself notable so a redirect there is not an option. Jinkinson  talk to me  23:48, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete. Elected only last June to some body. Too soon. In the future he may deserve an article as a politician. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 23:52, 1 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Hello Everyone, My name is Cecilia Cervantes, Chief of Staff to the Chicago District Association of Student Councils and C.D.A.S.C President, Angel Diaz. 1. This is not Angel first positions, as he's been apart of many community councils and organization since he was attending elementary school. 2.The links attached does confirm Angel Diaz positions as President of the Chicago District Association of Student Councils (which you can also visit our official website at www.chicagodistrictstuco.weebly.com) LSC member of Curie High School Local School Council, Board Member of the Chicago Board of Education and Board Member of Dr. Barbara Byrd-Bennett (CEO of Chicago Public Schools) Advisory board. I'm in process of verifying Angel Diaz's account. He is a high profile in the City of Chicago for the work he has done for his community, working with Chicago Mayor and Illinois Governor, he is not your typical student, but a student leader and idol to students all over Chicago, if we didn't believe that Mr.Diaz has accomplished so much for Chicago, the page would have not been written.

Best,

Cecilia Cervantes,
 * Chief of Staff| Chicago District Association of Student Councils|


 * Hola Cecilia, please read Notability to understand how we work here. Thanks. --Why should I have a User Name? (talk) 09:18, 2 November 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete. Quoting from the lead section of WP:BIO: For people, the person who is the topic of a biographical article should be "worthy of notice" – that is, "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded" within Wikipedia as a written account of that person's life.


 * Being the president of a high school-related body, or a member of another high school-related body, is not notable. This is an encyclopedia. Most of the references (no inline citations, by the way), are passing mentions, which might corroborate some information, but that's irrelevant since the person is not notable at all. Also, a large portion of the article is basically a copy-paste job of this source.


 * Delete, this young man might one day get the amount of coverage to pass the notability test, but he doesn't seem to be there yet. As pointed out above, most of the mentions of this person in reliable sources are just brief mentions, nothing in depth that constitutes "significant" coverage.  This shouldn't be taken as a comment positive or negative on the subject of the article themselves, just an assessment of how they fit against Wikipedia's own peculiar criteria.
