[edit] Chris Reid

Delete. Non-notable candidate for city councillor in 2006 Toronto municipal elections. Fails to meet WP:BIO criteria. Atrian 02:04, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete City council members are inherently non-notable. A mere candidate even less so. Other accomplishments do not rise to the level which would warrant inclusion. --DarkAudit 02:09, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, DarkAudit took the words out of my mouth. --Kinu ^t/_c 02:10, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete: An anti-sprawl candidate, like tens of thousands in the US and UK. If he figures out a solution to sprawl that takes away the inherent power differential of money and tax base improvements and manages to get that plan enacted, he might be Man of the Year. Until then, he's a contender, and I'm sure we wish him well. Geogre 02:27, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

He's not so much anti-sprawl as he is NIMBY. And NIMBY candidates are a dime a dozen. --Skeezix1000 18:38, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Absolutely. NIMBY could have a listcruft article generated from it that would be deleted for having an infinite set. Geogre 18:46, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as non-notable candidate. Leading with an external link to ones campaign website also calls WP:AUTO into the mix. Shameless Plug: Moving over to Campaigns Wikia would be perfectly ok. Not sure if there is a transwiki for that yet. — MrDolomite | Talk 03:11, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

• Retain I think all challengers should be considered noteworthy. If they lose the election and do nothing else considered relevant, then their pages may be thrown into the trash heap of history. Juveboy 01:07, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
