[edit] Joe Schriner

Joe Schriner (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

A write-in candidate for president, who has absolutely no chance of winning at all. The reason i haven't speedied this is because he does appear to have a tiny bit of publicity in small newspapers, but that is hardly notable i think. 11kowrom 22:03, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

• Weak keep for now, it does seem he has a small campaign going. James H. McCall has the same issue i think, as he also has a small campaign. I'm not sure if that makes them notable, but for now my stance is to keep. Borjon22 22:10, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
• Delete both Schriner and McCall. Just because they say they are running for president, doesn't mean anyone cares. For contestants in a national election, national media coverage is required to establish notability, and it's not there. YechielMan 05:41, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. This guy has ran in elections since 2000, and has been campaigning in multiple states. He many have no chance of winning, but neither do Libertarians, and they have articles. 729roman 00:27, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. Plenty of press coverage since he started out 7 years ago. I don't think 'chance of winning' should be a factor in notability. Lots of musicians have no chance of winning a Grammy but that doesn't put them up for deletion. 67.70.163.54 17:24, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
