Stub since August. No one has even made the slightest effort to improve this article. Can be re-created when there's some real content, more than a sentence. Delete GreenJoe 15:33, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Northwest Territories for now. 23skidoo 15:58, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable topic. Being a stub is not a valid reason for deletion. Resolute 18:58, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Resolute pretty much said it all. Agent 86 19:39, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect per 23skidoo Soltak | Talk 20:15, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't quite understand what the article is supposed to be about. The NWT certainly has a unique political structure but right now the article just lists political issues very generally.  --JGGardiner 21:42, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - that's why I'm suggesting a redirect. At the moment the article offers nothing that isn't already covered in the main article. 23skidoo 21:46, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I have expanded the article. It still isn't great, but it shows that the topic is capable of expansion into a proper article. Agent 86 23:26, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the expansion Agent 86. It's nice to see that even a Canadian nationalist can make valuable contributions at times.  =)  Yes, I'd definitely keep the article as it is now.  This morning it was a little different, with only one vague sentence.  A bit like looking at a hanfull of seeds, not knowing what you'd get if you planted them.  Though it is a funny thing because we don't seem to have these articles for other jurisdictions.  Should there be a Politics of Alberta or Politics of Toronto article as well?  --JGGardiner 05:15, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Dude, there is a Politics of Alberta and a Politics of Toronto article. Kevlar67 19:07, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep as reasonable stub (now expanded.) Spacepotato 23:59, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - as it has now been expanded, the rationale for deletion is no longer applicable (although it was questionable from the beginning--being a stub is no reason to delete). -- Black Falcon 01:46, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep expanded version; clearly notable. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 03:01, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and keep expanding where possible. The "real content" required in the nomination is well and truly there. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 04:49, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep no deletion rationelle. --Qyd 05:05, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
