Wikipedia WP:GNG and WP:BLP and WP:NOTABILITY standards not met. Minor unsuccessful political candidates are not notable. The previous AfD review occurred 15 years ago and this person has not achieved notability in politics or business since, and there is no indication of historically relevant notability. In addition, the article is written in a way that exhibits WP:COI concerns. ABT021 (talk) 15:43, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Above content was appended to the previous discussion page from 2006. There was also no transclusion to the daily log. Fixed now--I have no opinion of my own at this time. @ABT021: For future nominations, please fully follow the instructions at WP:AFDHOWTO and note that nominating a page which had been discussed at AfD previously (regardless of result) requires the creation of a new discussion page rather than adding to the old one. Thanks. --Finngall ^talk 16:54, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete In 2006 loosing in a primary election was enough to show notability, we have since realized that such a standard was absurd and unsupportable, we need to delete this article on this person who is not even close to being notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:05, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being unsuccessful candidates in political party primaries. To be notable enough for inclusion, he would have to show that he has other notability claims for other reasons besides the candidacy per se, such that he would have gotten over our inclusion standards for those other things regardless of whether he won or lost the election per se — such as having already held a different notable political office, or getting over our notability standards for his pre-candidacy career. But nothing here demonstrates that. Bearcat (talk) 15:35, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
