Rebecca Blaikie
Attempted WP:PROD, besides being the daughter of an well known politician, she's not noteable in her own right. According to the article, she hasn't done anything since 2004, and running in one election against the incumbent Prime Minister is not noteable, especially if thats the only claim to noteability, doesn't meet WP:BIO. pm_shef 21:53, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep, as I voted nearly two years ago (I was the anon; Votes for deletion/Rebecca Blaikie). It has certainly been improved since the once sentence identifying her as Bill Blaikie's daughter that was nominated at that time. Otherwise merge into the appropriate X party candidates in the X election page as is the widely accepted minimum vehicle to cover candidates of debatable importance otherwise.

 * While I realize that not everybody agrees on the notability of unelected political candidates, the precedent has already been set that federal candidates are entitled at least to inclusion in a merged list. Either keep or merge into New Democratic Party candidates, 2004 Canadian federal election; precedent already excludes outright deletion as an option. Bearcat 00:40, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge into New Democratic Party candidates, 2004 Canadian federal election as with other failed candidates not notable for other reasons. Luigizanasi 05:53, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge to New Democratic Party candidates, 2004 Canadian federal election for the same reasons given by Samaritan and Luigizanasi. In addition, isn't something or someone newsworthy wikiworth of an article or mention on this encyclopedia? Finally, if she was kept before, wouldn't that mean than she should be kept again?
