Individual students participating in model parliaments, volunteer cadet youth groups, or similar education/training-based organizations, aren't inherently notable. Nice to see young people interested in learning how their government works, and potentially serving their country and all, but mock elections and volunteer youth group activities generally have no real-world notability. Complete lack of independent/secondary reliable sources bears this out. Ravenna1961 (talk) 00:10, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Forgot to mention that this entry in the series (Justin Wollin/Chris Erl) alsoadditionally appears to have conflict of interest issues, as well. Ravenna1961 (talk) 00:22, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

• Participants in a youth parliament are not notable. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 01:37, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
• The Youth Parliament is not a mock election. It is a mirror of the Parliament of Canada decicated to the perspective of young Canadians. As such, the YPC is charged with representing youth to the Government of Canada, and the United Nations. Key players are indeed notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by KeeganLoyst (talk • contribs) 06:12, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

• Strong delete. Fails the politician section of WP:BIO, because the new YPC is not a legislative body. Fails the general criteria due to lack of independent press coverage. I'll grant just enough assertion of notability that I won't speedy-delete it, but this is not a notable subject. —C.Fred (talk) 06:27, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. Masterpiece2000 (talk) 12:48, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per nom and WP:BIO. I'm a member of this organization (YPC) and can assure you that it is not, at this time, notable enough that its staff would be notable by affiliation. Perhaps in five years, but at this point, no secondary sources, no media results. Clear delete. -- Chabuk ^{[ T • C ]} 20:04, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete A mock politician in a mock election for a mock parliament. It is a great program, but individual "politicians" are not notable. Especially as per WP:RS. Resolute 21:25, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
• Delete - sounds like a laufable individual but doesn't meet wiki's notability criteria -- Whpq (talk) 21:13, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
