The result was redirect‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__ to Barack Obama judicial appointment controversies. I don't find the argument against redirecting persuasive; the presence of a redirect doesn't say that this individual was controversial, only that the relevant information is found at the target. There is clear consensus against a standalone article. Vanamonde (Talk) 16:34, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Barack Obama judicial appointment controversies as we're starting to do with these. We have lawyers statements, and some relatively trivial coverage like but nothing that amounts to SIGCOV as far as I can see. &mdash;siro&chi;o 09:51, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The reason I'm not proposing a redirect is that there isn't much to suggest that Ong was a controversial nominee, and his WP:BLP1E isn't covered in that article, as seen by his passing through the Senate Judiciary Committee by a voice vote with the support of both Indiana senators. It appears that he simply never received a vote before the end of Obama's 2nd term, and I don't see any other possible redirect targets. Let&#39;srun (talk) 12:58, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete as article creator. However, am open to the alternatives above, if they are pursued. Safiel (talk) 17:28, 24 July 2023 (UTC)
