Non-notable political candidate. Fails WP:POLITICIAN, not elected at any level. Fails WP:BIO, no substantial sources that show notability. Tassedethe ( talk) 23:28, 10 May 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Candedates are not considered notable. Isn't the usual practice to redirect to the article on the election. -- Dmol ( talk) 23:37, 10 May 2014 (UTC) reply

*Redirect- To United States House of Representatives elections in Ohio, 2014#District 2, where he's already appropriately included. Dru of Id ( talk) 15:25, 12 May 2014 (UTC) reply

    • Note This candidate is not listed at that page as that is the US House of Representatives election; the candidate is standing in District 2 of the Ohio House of Representatives. As far as I can see there are no pages on Ohio state level elections. Tassedethe ( talk) 17:09, 12 May 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Comment I came across this article a couple of months ago and removed all of the promotional stuff. I made the mistake of editing in the US House of Representatives rather than District 2. I see he is running uncontested in the primary [1], but he probably has little chance of winning district 2. However, I'm willing to have the article moved to my user space until we see the outcome of the election this fall. It looks like every member of the Ohio House of Representatives has an article here, so he would need one. If he loses, I would just have it deleted from my user space.

  • Delete Per WP:POLITICIAN, candidates to the U.S. House with no significant coverage are not notable and should be deleted. A candidate to a State House with no significant coverage is even less notable and should also be deleted. Tiller54 ( talk) 11:41, 16 May 2014 (UTC) reply
