After noticing it had been flagged for notability concerns, I did a WP:BEFORE search which revealed the subject of the article lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of them & do not satisfy any criterion from WP:NPOL & as a businessman he doesn’t satisfy WP:ANYBIO. Perhaps this is WP:TOOSOON. Celestina007 (talk) 23:54, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Article has existed for less than a day, but fine. Per WP:NPOL, "The following are presumed to be notable: Politicians and judges who have held international, national, or (for countries with federal or similar systems of government) state/province–wide office. As the chair of a major party at the state-wide level, this individual meets WP:NPOL. KidAd • SPEAK 00:02, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete he's never actually held office so the keep argument's flawed there, fails WP:GNG, WP:NPOL. SportingFlyer T·C 00:07, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:NPOL and per WP:POLOUTCOMES: Leaders of major sub-national (state, province, prefecture, etc.) parties are usually deleted unless notability can be demonstrated for other reasons. An example is Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ron Nehring (2nd nomination), which resulted in the deletion of a California GOP Chair. Best, GPL93 (talk) 19:44, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete State political party chairs are not default notable. We have deleted articles on people who lead political parties in a state with over 25 times the population of Idaho. As I have said elsewhere, some people who hold this postion are notable, but default notability is limited to elected officials and holders of appointed government positions, not political party functionaries.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:07, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete He needs to hold office in Government and not in party for NPOL or be very popular locally - which he seems not to be. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 01:35, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
