Maksat Annanepesov

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unsuccessful political candidate, attracting the coverage you'd expect. No clear evidence of WP:NPOL or WP:GNG. Boleyn (talk) 20:46, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. People do not automatically get Wikipedia articles just for being unsuccessful candidates in elections — even at the presidential level, you still need to either demonstrate that he already had preexisting notability for some other reason (e.g. having already held a "lower" NPOL-passing office, such as a seat in the legislature), or source the article well enough to pass WP:GNG. This, however, demonstrates no preexisting notability at all, parts of it read more like a campaign brochure ("was described as an ambitious, competent and experienced professional") than an encyclopedia article — and the sourcing consists of one brief blurb about him and three glancing namechecks of his existence in articles that aren't about him, which is not a GNG pass.

 * Delete per nom. Fails NPOL and GNG. L3X1 (distænt write)  02:42, 24 September 2017 (UTC)
