The result was Keep/ closed by nominator. I didn't think that a state legislator qualified as first level sub-national office (for some reason I was only equating Governor to that.... silly me) and as the article originally stood I didn't see extra anything qualifying as notable. Great job on the rewrite and the added sources. Mister Senseless™ (Speak - Contributions) 21:03, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

NN state rep, fails WP:POLITICIAN. Google comes up with nothing except his contact info on the PA house of representatives website. Mister Senseless™ (Speak - Contributions) 17:33, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. In my opinion he seems to meet WP:POLITICIAN, specifically as a member of the Pennsylvania legislature he holds a first-level sub-national political office and so meets the first criteria - "People who have held international, national or first-level sub-national political office, including members of a legislature and judges". Most memebrs of the PA house of representatives have articles and although this article is only a stub that's no reason to delete. Dpmuk (talk) 18:17, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect he meets WP:POLITICIAN, but this substub is so devoid of information that it is more a directory entry than a biography. Does anyone know when or where he was born, which party he's in? Well our article doesn't help them either. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 18:20, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]- Just did a major update so it now provides a lot more information (although, annoyingly, not where and when he was born as I ahven't found this yet).

- Keep per the rewrite. Still would like to know when & where he was born, but alas the information is probably a state secret. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 18:59, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep as state level politician. Well done to Dpmuk for the rewrite. Capitalistroadster (talk) 19:28, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
