Rich Hamilton

 * - (View AfD) (View log)

The article on Rich Hamilton on Wikipedia has the UK Parliamentary constituency box for Milton Keynes North taken from Wikipedia itself and has elections contested, at the bottom, which are all verifiable by legitimate reference tags. These are all official UK local election results. There is nothing on this Wikipedia article which warrants deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Horseanddoglover (talk • contribs) 2010/03/15 17:23:13

 * Redirect to Milton Keynes North (UK Parliament constituency). WP:POLITICIAN requires redirects as a general rule for candidates in legislative constituencies. The reason for this is that candidates are generally not-notable (almost all coverage is campaign-related and transitive) but we should preserve the content in case the candidate wins election and becomes notable. For completeness, the candidate is from a minor party (BNP) and I can't find any substantial coverage of him in reliable sources (I don't see the sources presented in the article as amounting to either substantial or reliable). --Mkativerata (talk) 19:28, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. I don't think I'd even bother with a redirect, as there are several over Richard Hamiltons already on Wikipedia. Chris Neville-Smith (talk) 19:36, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete as for all not otherwise notable candidates. Redirect if it must be so. Peridon (talk) 20:04, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Richard Hamilton, which is a disambiguation page. Place an item on that page stating that this is the name of a candidate, with a link to the constituency provided by Mkativerata. Ray  Talk 03:11, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Non notable by any measure with little point to any re-direct. -  Gallo glass  10:26, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete no content apart from 1 or 2 stats repeated on the constituency page, Highly unlikly to win and fails: WP:POLITICIAN, for these reasons I feel that there is no pont in a redirect as I would normaly suggest. --Wintonian (talk) 23:00, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete for a complete lack of notability --Saalstin (talk) 21:28, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete A NN serial minor party candidate, who has always so far lost every election for which he has stood. In the unlikely result of his being elected, the article can be undeleted.  Peterkingiron (talk) 18:01, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
