Publican Party

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

While this particular party is a bit more notable than the other ones I've nominated for merger/deletion, I don't feel that the Publician Party quite measures up to notability standards and therefore ought to be dropped or merged. I do feel that this one is a bit more of a borderline case (it did get over 5000 votes in the Scottish Parliament elections last time), but it still has the same feel as a number of the other one-shot parties I've brought up, and therefore I think it should probably go in the same pile as the rest of them (for merger or deletion).Tyrenon (talk) 06:39, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - looks pretty clear-cut to me; it may not have polled well, but 5,000 votes is a considerable tally, and there was plenty of coverage of the party at the time. Warofdreams talk 13:21, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge into the necessary Scottish Parliament election article. They have stood more than once, I'm sure of it, but they are no longer registered with the EC. doktorb wordsdeeds 22:43, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment - is it wise to merge it into the Scottish Parliament election article, when they also stood in the 2005 UK general election? Warofdreams talk 09:20, 27 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep - definitely should be included - there are more sources that could be used, it just needs a little work. Smartse (talk) 10:31, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - actual political party. I only made a few small adjustments but yes, this needs cleanup, not afd. ZabMilenko 16:04, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
