The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to JoAnne Favors. Redirecting to article about the same subject. However, since this article is completely unsourced, anything merged will also be unsourced so I'm deleting the history per WP:BLP. Ron Ritzman (talk) 12:13, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Does not meet WP:POLITICIAN – also, borderline G12 if it is too close of a copy of her official site. Raymie (t • c) 00:10, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

~~Keep, for now~~ - Per WP:POLITICIAN, point #1: "Politicians who have held international, national or sub-national (statewide/provincewide) office, and members and former members of a national, state or provincial legislature and judges." She is a state legislaturist, so she meets the "generally notable" threshhold. Article need reliable sources, but that can be addressed. - BilCat (talk) 03:29, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge - I independently found the other article just now. Suggest Speedy close as Merge, which could have been done immediately, except the nom added the AFD after only 25 minutes, a bit premature in hindsight, and with obviously very little effoer made to confirm the politician was not notable, or had an existing article. Sloppy - if you're going to take the serious step of an AFD, make sure you do it right. - BilCat (talk) 05:05, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge any useful additional content and redirect to already-existing article Joanne Favors. (Unless I am somehow mistaken that these are the same person.) She clearly passes WP:POLITICIAN and as well I find hundreds of news sources covering her activities at Google News.--Arxiloxos (talk) 04:58, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge into Joanne Favors, as proposed by Arxiloxos. --Orlady (talk) 05:03, 24 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
