I previously speedied this, but there's at least some assertion this time and it's not pure advertising, so bringing to AfD. The mention from the Washington Post is trivial and in passing, and does not cover the subject of the article in any depth. I can't find anything that does, so as far as I can tell, this article is unsustainable. Seraphimblade Talk to me 18:42, 5 July 2010 (UTC) reply
Dave Hedgepeth is a political candidate and therefore it would be advantageous to both residents of Washington DC and Wikipedia viewers to have a page on him. While the coverage of him in the media is not comparable to a movie star or a candidate that became a living sensation overnight (see Alvin Greene), he has appeared on local television, the radio and been mentioned in the printed media as well. I sincerely hope you reconsider and I promise to continue to update the page with objective information about him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonsmandel ( talk • contribs) 21:50, 5 July 2010 (UTC) reply
I'm not sure if I quite understand how "Uncle G" can accuse my page to have been written improperly when 1) he himself does not use correct spelling or grammar and 2) numerous sites do not cite every single detail. I do admit using the word "proud" was a mistake, but I think it would be a bigger mistake to remove the page based on this subjective gauge you all are using on the candidate's coverage in the media. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.201.252.98 ( talk) 20:58, 6 July 2010 (UTC) reply
