Political advertisement  DGG ( talk ) 06:02, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep unless the nominator is arguing that it is a paid political advertisement. There is no policy or guideline that I am aware of that says that biographies of political candidates are not permitted in draft space.  They should not be accepted into article space unless they meet general notability, and G11 does apply.  Is there a concern that the author is being paid?  Robert McClenon (talk) 16:11, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
 * It depends on the nature of the bio. If it's an objective bio, yes it's permitted. This is a promotional bio., though not quite so much so as to list for G11. I imagine the author is being paid, probably by thecampaign, since this does not look like the usual UPE. But I do not think we had a rule against accepting articles by presumed UPEs  who had not been banned, though I think we ought to consider it. The difficulty there is that good faith editors also write in the same style, having sen so much promotionalism  here and in the RW.  DGG ( talk ) 18:02, 4 March 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep. This is a good feature of draftspace, a place out of sight to draft on not yet notable budding political candidates. WP:V is met, WP:BLP is ok met, advertising has no impact in draftspace, and it might suddenly become notable one week.  Delete if repeatedly submitted, although I think warning then blocking the submitter is better. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:55, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - It may be promotional in intent and the writing looks like a PR blurb but not to the extent that it cannot be fixed so valid for the purposes of draft space -- Whpq (talk) 22:03, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm withdrawing this . I read it again, and it might be fixable.''  DGG ( talk ) 23:29, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
