Deletion

Article is an unsourced BLP that does not meet the standards for a BLP. Please source it correctly. Wolfstorm000 (talk) 06:09, 5 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Being a member of a Parliament does not make a person notable and using a seeming government page, one sentence which mentions him, does not qualify as sourcing. Where does he meet WP:NOTABILITY? Wolfstorm000 (talk) 06:51, 5 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The subject is notable per the guidelines developed under community consensus at WP:POLITICIAN. The one sentence with cite was enough, however, the recent work done to expand the article has made the point moot. The Afd should be withdrawn. Location (talk) 15:39, 5 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Understand when I first looked at this article while working through Project Backlog it had no sources and only one sentence and had been tagged as unsourced for 2 months. When I PRODed it, it was contested and the only source given did not appear to fully explain the notability of the subject. Much work has been done and it looks a lot better. There is a message on my talk about the alternate name if you would like to check the doc I found relating to it and use it in the article. Wolfstorm000 (talk) 21:19, 5 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
