Non-notable singer and politician. Doesn't meet WP:MUSIC or WP:POLITICIAN Pontificalibus (talk) 19:52, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Per nom. The articles subject has only 2 claims to notability, one as a parliamentary candidate, this however fails WP:POLITICIAN. Secondly as the brother of a famous musician, this also fails as notability is NOT INHERITED. With currently no other claim to notability this really has to be a straight delete. - Galloglass 20:21, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - No evidence of notability. RobertMel (talk) 23:08, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Firstly, members of the public wishing to make an informed opinion about the candidates in this constituency need thefacts about different candidates to ensure a fair election. If we only have articles (free promotion) about Incumbent politicians, then Wikipedia is showing bias, which I thought we were against. As the election is very close, the subject could soon be an MP and so definitely worthy of inclusion, plus I believe he is going to be releasing a new musical endeavour soon which will also make him more notable. If deletion is the final decision, can some elements of the article be included into the Peter noone article? Wordforge —Preceding undated comment added 23:45, 17 February 2010 (UTC).[reply]

Per WP:POLITICIAN, redirect to West Lancashire (UK Parliament constituency)#Elections in the 2010s. Ray^Talk 18:59, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect. No notability asserted. Being a PPC does not make one notable. Martin451 (talk) 22:22, 18 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep until he has lost the election; if not redirect as suggested, so that he article can eaily be revived in the unlikely event of his winning. We will get a lot of these sort of articles in the lection run-up. Peterkingiron (talk) 18:39, 21 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
