Waveney Council election, 2012

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )
 * This election never happened.
 * The BBC Local elections 2012 page lists the councils which held elections, and Waveney is not listed.
 * Waveney Council's own website explains why: "Waveney held elections for the first time in 2011 for all 48 seats of the District Council. This meant that everyone in Waveney elected their District Councillor at the same time and all of the Councillors that were elected took up office for a 4-year term to expire in May 2015".

 * Delete I created it, based on good faith from the template creator - I guess he didn't have a clue. I speedied another one a while ago for the same reason.  Lugnuts  (talk) 13:54, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
 * When you created it, you really should have checked the reference cited in the article, which is the BBC Local elections 2012 link (as listed above). It's not exactly good practice to cite a reference without checking whether it supports the facts asseeted in the article you create.
 * How many other articles did you create in the same way? -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 14:00, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
