 * Delete/Merge per WP:POLITICIAN. I don't see any primary sources about him per se, just as another candidate.  I also think the articles for deletion discussion about how to treat candidates is clearly applicable.  We should be taking all the Green Party candidate pages and merging them into a single page. --Mr. Vernon (talk) 06:32, 21 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment: Potential merge target is Green Party candidates, 40th Canadian federal election. Double Blue  (Talk) 11:34, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as per Mr. Vernon. As the precedents page says, "Candidates for a national legislature are not viewed as having inherent notability." Personally, I like the greens. I hope he wins and then gets his article :) justinfr (talk) 12:20, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails both WP:POLITICIAN and the general notability criteria. Jasynnash2 (talk) 13:10, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Keep! If WP:? criteria recommend the deletion of the pages of Green party candidates in the current round of by-elections then there is clearly something wrong with the WP:? criteria. The Green party is one of only five parties large enough to warrant Canadian government funding and to be consistently included in Canadian polling data. It is also one of only four parties to have run a complete slate of candidates in the last election. It is not just another fringe party. This deletion campaign makes it look like Wikipedia is taking sides in what is turning out to be a closely-run race in this riding. --Paulalexdij (talk) 03:09, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. Your emphasis should be that we're deleting Green party candidates, not Green party candidates. Candidates from other parties should be deleted too, unless they're notable in other ways. It's almost irrelevant what party Nagy is from. justinfr (talk) 03:25, 22 August 2008 (UTC)


 * He has not (and doubtful will be) elected. Neither was mayor or councillor of major cities, so delete unless Harper decides to call the general election before September 8 thus it would be merged to the list of candidates of the Green Party. -- JForget 00:00, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
