Doesn't meet WP:POLITICIAN or WP:GNG. There are the options of redirects to Bill Bonnar or Scottish Socialist Party, but neither article contains more than her name in terms of information and so could confuse readers. Boleyn (talk) 21:36, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete as per nom, not an important enough figure in the party to redirect to Scottish Socialist Party. Power~enwiki (talk) 23:10, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete as per nom. I can find no online news or website sources to suggest the subject meets either general or political notability. Just this. Probably deserves no more than a brief mention in the Scottish Socialist Party article. Nick Moyes (talk) 23:28, 14 May 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Redirect or delete?
 * Redirect to Scottish Socialist Party, keeps the link blue and preserves article history if she later winds up notable. Redirects are cheap.   Montanabw (talk) 05:34, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Scottish Socialist Party. Being spokesperson for a minor political party is not an automatic inclusion freebie in the absence of a demonstrated WP:GNG pass, and the only source given here is the party's own primary source web page about itself — but for people with a deep interest in Scottish politics, she is a plausible enough search term that her name should lead the reader somewhere relevant rather than just redlinking.

 * Comment I (still) support delete over a redirect. Her role in the Scottish Socialist Party was a 1-year long, patronage-style job (her father is a long-standing figure in the party) and doesn't justify a redirect. Power~enwiki (talk) 05:57, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I think there is a judgement call here. Some of these articles, recreating a redlink is just bait for the article to be recreated and we do the drama all over again.  A redirect often just creates a nice, quiet obscurity...  ;-)   Montanabw (talk) 05:04, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I removed the links from Sandra Webster (which is also an AfD candidate IMO) and Bill Bonnar. Power~enwiki (talk) 05:09, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Nonetheless, I'd keep it as a redirect. I really think that it is a better way to tuck in a person who is, most likely, a WP:TOOSOON situation.  Daughter of a political party founder? We could have the next Marine LePen, (only on the other side of the political spectrum) for all we know.  Montanabw (talk) 14:59, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Scottish Socialist Party, not notable enough for her own article. Quetzal1964 12:17, 29 May 2017 (UTC) talk
