David J Parks

declined prod. being named "top forty under forty" once by a local chamber of commerce is not a sufficient claim of notability, nor is being on a board of regents at a university. likely vanity article (first campaign for public office is just starting), no notable achievements, never elected to public office.

Delete, not notable, could not find further noteworthy information on him in a search. Risker (talk) 01:05, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep. It is likely that this is a vanity article, but it is best to assume that it isn't. I do agree that the notability of this particular politician is questionable, and there are certainly some NPOV issues, but I believe that this article stands a chance of being improved sufficiently. But perhaps I am being naïve...if there is indeed nothing to make this politician notable, then I would support its deletion. -Robert Skyhawk (Talk) 01:11, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, Alaska is swarmed with local politicians just like this dude. No real notability. Tell him to come back if he actually wins the election. L'Aquatique[review] 01:13, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Searching google news and the google news archives turns up little related results[1], google only turns up a couple of websites, as far as I can tell, no reliable sources can be sound to substantiate the claims made in the article. I think it fails human notability criteria Atyndall93 | talk 03:53, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete Being a politician's assistant doesn't usually make you notable unless the subject was caught in a scandal, played a key role in an election or was a key campaign adviser for say Obama or McCain. Subject does not hold a political office at present. Artene50 (talk) 06:07, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - does not meet WP:NOTE. Quite possibly he will be notable in the future, but nothing in the article or in searches of news archives indicates notability now. Frank | talk 14:43, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete – certainly does not meet WP:POLITICIAN and appears not to meet WP:NOTE. He's not currently notable. — Lincolnite (talk) 17:51, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete — No assertion of notability, clearly fails WP:POLITICIAN. macy^talk 22:55, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
