WP:BLP of a person whose only stated notability claim is as a candidate in an upcoming election. As always, this is not grounds for a Wikipedia article in and of itself -- the notability test for politicians is holding a notable office, not just running for one, and his only path to getting a Wikipedia article in advance of the election would be to demonstrate that he was already notable enough for a Wikipedia article before he ever stood as a candidate for anything. Obviously no prejudice against recreation after election day if he wins, but he isn't already entitled to have an article just for being a candidate. Bearcat (talk) 20:03, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:NPOL as described above. Subject has also received media coverage with regards to unproven criminal allegations, but that does not merit inclusion in Wikipedia per WP:BLPCRIME. DanCherek (talk) 22:04, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Strong delete: Just a person from Kerala who became viral through social media. Written for promotional work as 2021 Kerala legislative election is just a few days ahead where this person is a candidate. Kichu🐘 ^{Need any help?} 08:08, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete: Not even an attempt to claim notability has been made. --RaviC (talk) 15:26, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. WP is not for building recognition before an election. If the subject is elected, then by all means, recreate or refund. --Kbabej (talk) 20:42, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
