Fails WP:GNG and WP:NPOL. Minor vice presidential candidate is not independently notable outside of her role in Kanye's quixotic political journey, nor is she notable because of it, per WP:BLP1E. I wouldn't be opposed to a Redirect to Kanye West 2020 presidential campaign. KidAd (💬💬) 05:49, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

My rationale for protection is that Tidball is likely to be searched for, but remain a minor profile, in the coming months because of her connection to the election. I doubt the user who created the redirect's intention was for this to become a standalone article, and the user who removed the redirect and created the standalone article has fewer than 50 edits.--Molandfreak (talk, contribs, email) 16:48, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Molandfreak, that's fair but WP:SALT typically means protect a deleted page from recreation. In this case we'd be protecting a redirect which whilst nuanced is slightly different. But yes get your point and ultimately I think if (likely when) West's presidential run implodes this will probably be the final outcome. Glen 19:13, 28 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, and they are likely to find mention of her in the Kanye West 2020 presidential campaign article or the Third-party and independent candidates for the 2020 United States presidential election sub-page. The fact that people will be googling her does not mean she needs a separate article.--Darryl Kerrigan (talk) 21:15, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and ?maybe? Redirect: I say maybe because subject has not even acknowledged nomination.--Thespasticone
