Reform 2000 Party

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

Yet another of the numerous minor political parties that I would recommend either be deleted for non-notability or merged into a single article on extremely small political parties in the UK. This particular example ran five candidates for Parliament in 2001, received about 1400 votes, and has not run for anything since.Tyrenon (talk) 07:02, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak keep. While I'm not entirely convinced by this article's notability, this Google search did return some results that I would consider notability-making! JulieSpaulding (talk) 12:47, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment. A lot of those links seem to be related to the unrelated Reform Party in the US.  Of the others, the vast majority refer to other groups and proposals.  Of those in the first 100 results, only about three seem to refer to this one, and of those two are brief summaries while one is a "couldn't find anything" result.Tyrenon (talk) 14:36, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete (or Merge to British Turks - as Tyrenon says, I can't find anything suggesting significant coverage. The party made no impact.  The only thing of interest which I can find on the party is a paragraph in this press review from the Turkish Prime Minister's Office, which covers it as an example of British Turkish people standing in the general election - so may perhaps be worth merging this one piece of information to British Turks.

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete. Non-notable minor political party. Note that JulieSpaulding's "keep" statement above is based on a pretty terrible Google search - she didn't bother to phrase-search, so a large chunk of those hits (excluding the Wikipedia mirror sites and empty Mad Libs-style database sites) are for the loony-right U.S. "Reform Party"'s 2000 campaign.
