WP:BLP of a politician, not properly referenced as passing WP:NPOL. The attempted notability claim here is that she serves as chair of a British Columbia regional district, which is essentially that province's equivalent to a county council -- but politicians at the local level of office are not automatically notable enough for Wikipedia articles just because they exist, and have to show a significant depth and range of media coverage about their work to demonstrate that they should be seen as special cases of significantly greater notability than the norm for that level of prominence.
But this is written more like a résumé than a neutral encyclopedia article, and is "referenced" entirely to primary sources that are not support for notability, with not even one hit of WP:GNG-building third party media coverage shown at all. Bearcat (talk) 20:21, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, no evidence of notability that I can find. LizardJr8 (talk) 03:14, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Very low-level local government official, would be exceptionally rare for someone in this role to meet notability requirements. Having looked for sourcing including by searching "Jayme Kennedy Bella Coola" and having found little of value, I'm pretty sure this is not one of those exceptional cases.

Keep She's actually a state level politician and thus meets WP:NPOL. Furthermore, she her smile enriches Wikipedia.𝔓^420°𝔓^Holla 11:40, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"State-level" politician in what sense? She's a county-level politician in a country that has provinces, not states, and has never held a seat in any provincial legislature. And since when was "her smile enriches Wikipedia" a notability criterion in and of itself? Bearcat (talk) 14:17, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To answer your last question, Bearcat, consensus can change... SportingFlyer T·C 14:43, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

GDX420 Seems to be engaging in trolling at AfD since an article they created about a local politician was nominated for deletion. This has included nominating a state-level politician in India for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anant Patel using a false (labelling Patel a local politician) but very similar rationale to the AfD for their article.

But... her smile enriches Wikipedia! We just have to keep her! It's a small price to pay. Not to mention British Columbia is my favorite state. AllTheUsernamesAreInUse (talk) 23:34, 16 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – fails notability guidelines with no reliable sources. All sources in the article are essentially primary. Toadette ^{(Let's discuss together!)} 19:24, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
