Being a failed political candidate is not notable, subject fails all criteria at WP:POLITICIAN. WWGB (talk) 11:32, 29 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Please note that I've updated the article an removed what was needed, this peorsn is a politician that has been around since 2005 an was unsuccessful to be elected to political cabinet. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MrStevEO722 (talk • contribs)

Delete. WP:POLITICIAN requires they must "have held international, national or sub-national (statewide/provincewide) office", or "received significant press coverage". Neither is asserted here, and it very strongly appears that neither applies here. --Yamla (talk) 12:10, 29 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete As simply being a failed candidate for political office does not qualify for notability under WP:NPOL and there is no other evidence of significant coverage. AusLondonder (talk) 17:08, 29 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. Being an unsuccessful candidate for political office does not pass WP:NPOL — a person has to win election and thereby hold office to make it into Wikipedia on politician grounds — but there's no evidence being shown here that he has any preexisting notability for any other reason, which is the only other way a candidate gets an article without winning the seat first.

 * Delete it took a bit of reading, because the wording is non-standard. However this is a guy who was a failed candidate, and failed candidates are not notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:51, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
