WP:BLP of a politician notable only as a local authority councillor. The only other thing we've got here is that she was an unsuccessful candidate for her party's nomination for the Holyrood election last week, but being an unsuccessful candidate in a nomination contest or primary does not normally augment a person's notability at all — and the only thing that might lift her very slightly above the normal non-notability of unsuccessful nomination candidates, the fact that there was some controversy around the nomination contest she lost, simultaneously fails WP:BLP1E. Nothing here constitutes a reason why she warrants permanent coverage in an encyclopedia at this time. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 01:22, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Weak delete: Appears to have some regional press notoriety in her current position, but if primarily a municipal official, unless there is significant coverage for her acts in office, probably not sufficiently notable.   Montanabw (talk)  18:55, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. As per the nom, local councillors aren't inherently notable. The media coverage McAnulty has received seems to me to be related to only a single event ("event" being loosely construed), so I think WP:BLP1E applies: "We should generally avoid having an article on a person […] if reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event […and…] that person otherwise remains, and is likely to remain, a low-profile individual […and…] the event is not significant".
