[edit] Kirsten Gillibrand

This is yet another candidate that Annonymous1000, Jenikap etc have tried to put on here as part of the election campaign. Fails WP:BIO - Delete. BlueValour 07:36, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom. DarthVader 09:21, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:BIO, unsuccessful political candidate. Also note that there a few editors (mostly Annonymous1000 Jenikap) have recently created large amounts of democratic related articles. Could this possibly be liberal propaganda on Wikipedia? If so, then the above article also falls under WP:NOT#Wikipedia_is_not_a_soapbox--TBCTaLk?!? 09:26, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, fails WP:BIO. Also, "presumptive" candidate? Sounds like crystal-ballism. --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 09:28, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. This is a candidate for cleanup and de-pov, but major party nominees to national legislatures should be kept. youngamerican (ahoy-hoy) 23:30, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete You can't take a resume and a pretty face from Albany and say to people this is a good article (per above). SM247My Talk 01:22, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep for now since she is a current congressional candidate in a major party primary [1]. Bring back up for AFD if she loses the primary. KleenupKrew 10:52, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep - It's WP:NPOV may need some work ("energetic moderate-to-liberal Democrat with broad bi-partisan appeal," is just a start), but as a poorly qualified amateur historian, I personally think this is one of those things that should be kept. If she loses, ten years from now (Web 5.0?) somebody else will have won and the competitor would be a red article because nobody knows who she was... -- RevRagnarok Talk Contrib Reverts 04:48, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
