The result was keep. Making a snow closure here, clear community consensus that current and historic members of state/provincial legislatures in federal systems are presumed notable, per WP:NPOL and WP:POLOUTCOMES. (non-admin closure) Goldsztajn (talk) 02:51, 14 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Being in a state legistlature 10 years ago is not notable. Article has serious issues of NPOV and V that can't easily be remedied. None of the sources are legitimate (ex. Maxim) and the only other real sources are about her endorsing actual notable politicians Colestefan (talk) 15:08, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Agree per nom. violation of WP:Notability and extremely lack of sources with WP:Verifiability. WeifengYang (talk) 16:40, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Presumed notable per WP:NPOL. It may be a coincidence that she announced her candidacy for a Congress seat in 2022 fifteen hours ago. Mccapra (talk) 16:57, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Notable per WP:NPOL. Arsonxists (talk) 17:01, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Is every single California state legislator in history automatically entitled to a Wikipedia page? There does not appear to be anything else notable about Nicole either during her time in the legislature or since. It's clear this article is shambolic in terms of its content and sources.

    In answer to your first sentence, yes, per WP:NPOL, which I linked before you even started this discussion. If the current sourcing in the article is inadequate then WP:SOFIXIT applies. You could start by looking at the sources found by clicking on "books" and "news" above. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:44, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The article has a couple of things that could use improvement, but the subject is notable. ―NK1406 talkcontribs 17:48, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Former member of the California State Assembly. Passed WP:NPOL --Enos733 (talk) 18:04, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, the whole point of WP:NPOL is that we have complete coverage of important political offices. ThadeusOfNazerethTalk to Me! 18:47, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep: The sourcing in the article is bad, but it's easy to find coverage of her elections and her work in the legislature. I added an article about her endorsement by the CA Farm Bureau. — Toughpigs (talk) 18:49, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete: I cleaned up some of the sourcing, but still borderline. WP:NPOl doesn’t automatically justify an article for every historic legislator. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:140:B:7DE:2C46:202A:E81B:4081 (talk) 19:32, 12 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • speedy keep state legislators are notable and this has lots of historic precedent, no case for deletion. Article has issues but nothing that can't be fixed. Kingofthedead (talk) 01:15, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
