No evidence of WP: Notability, unsourced since 2012, when it was last prodded (hence why I haven't prodded it myself). Lavalizard101 (talk) 09:47, 28 October 2022 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, –&#8239;Joe (talk) 11:30, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Voting advice application. This is discussed in sources, but only as one of many such apps.  I'll change my vote if more substantial coverage is found. SpinningSpark 12:50, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete - I'd be OK with the redirect proposed by, but there is no information about this topic at that page, save for a link to this page, which if turned into a redirect would provide the reader with no additional information, hence WP:PRESERVE isn't applicable. I tried a wide search, and other than sources Spinninspark found I couldn't find anything. There may be something in UK newspaper archives, to which I do not have access.  The sources available are casual mentions, and give no information except being included in a list, and giving some results from using the application.  Therefore the article fails WP:V, and I don't see how it is possible to build anything within policy beyond a ministub stating what would be already obvious to anyone seeking information.   78.26  (spin me / revolutions) 12:58, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Addendum. The original deprod states that Google News has several hits on the topic. If it did then, it no longer does ("No Results Found") and I am not bright enough to figure out how to find them.  78.26  (spin me / revolutions) 13:05, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I think maybe the see also section of that article should be turned into a list of voting advice applications, in which case Vote Match could stay mentioned without being a circular link. I've just been through the see also and removed all the ELs and redlinks (which was most of it), but if the list suggestion is taken up, some of them could be restored if they can be sourced to something independent of their own websites.

 * Delete No sources found, might have been a few when this website/app thing was launched. It appears to have fizzled out without leaving much of a trace. Even using the website, it says Vote Match 2015 is "coming soon!". Oaktree b (talk) 13:17, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
