Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Malinda Pego


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__ to Michigan Republican Party. There is a consensus that the subject does not meet notability guidelines, with most editors agreeing on redirect as the outcome. No argument was advanced as to why the page should be deleted before redirection, so I'm interpreting that !vote as advocating WP:BLAR rather than interpreting it literally. signed,Rosguill talk 04:19, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

Malinda Pego

Chairing a state party doesn't automatically make you notable, and even then, Pego was never recognized as chair. Don't see any reason to think she satisfies WP:GNG. No national in-depth coverage of her as a person. The chairmanship struggle is noteworthy, but she would fail WP:1E. I'd support a redirect or merge to Michigan Republican Party.

 * Delete for everything above but throw WP:NOTNEWS into the mix. SportingFlyer  T · C  20:03, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Disagree that NOTNEWS is relevant, but I haven't managed to find great sources on Pego in particular (there's some coverage about her actions as a county commissioner, but not much). Agree with a redirect to Michigan Republican Party for now at least. Elli (talk &#124; contribs) 20:04, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect. The controversy is already covered in the main article and I'm not finding any other sources meeting WP:GNG that would suggest she merits a standalone article. P.S. great username :) Cheers, Chocmilk03 (talk) 20:45, 7 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Being a state party chair does make you a notable person. This is widely known situation going on. WavyPhoton (talk) 01:53, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Can you cite the Wikipedia policy that says being a state party chair is notable, or give a more detailed explanation? Also, Pego never officially became chair. The chairmanship dispute is indeed noteworthy, but that's already covered in detail at the Michigan Republican Party page. How is Pego notable enough on her own to get a separate Wikipedia page?
