State legislator does not pass WP:NPOL. The guide allows for "state–wide office" which is taken to mean "Constitutional offices". State legislators do not usually meet NPOL without WP:SIGCOV. Bruxton (talk) 23:47, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Politicians and Wyoming. Bruxton (talk) 23:48, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. WP:NPOL also covers people who "have been members of legislative bodies" at the state level, i.e. state legislators like Kastor. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 00:10, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep - WP:NPOL says that individuals who ...have been members of legislative bodies at those levels meets the criteria, with state-level specifically being one of those levels. The article's subject was in the state-level legislature, so meets WP:NPOL. - Aoidh (talk) 00:50, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep: Article satisfies WP:NPOL. Ⓩⓟⓟⓘⓧ Talk 01:04, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment "state/province wide" is the wording in the NPOL guideline. This person represented Uinta in the Wyoming House of Representatives not in a state wide office. NPOL does not offer automatic notability to this person. Bruxton (talk) 01:59, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * ...or have been members of legislative bodies at those levels is the relevant part that is met here. The Wyoming Legislature is the legislative body at the state-wide level, and he was a member of that legislative body. That is exactly what WP:NPOL is looking for. It is not a criteria that they themselves represent the entire state in the legisiature; if that were the case their national counterparts in the United States House of Representatives would also fail that criteria since they also generally only represent a part of the state, not the entire state. - Aoidh (talk) 03:24, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
