The result was Keep WP:POLITICIAN is a subject-specific guideline that presumes notability for "members and former members of a national, state or provincial legislature". In this case, the person was elected to his state legislature on November 2, and is scheduled to be sworn in to office as one of the members of that legislature two months from now. Although one could make the point that a state representative-elect is, technically, not yet entitled to a stand-alone Wikipedia article, there would be no question of the application of policy in January. Anyone may ask for deletion review, and nomination may be made again in January if the scheduled entry into the legislature does not take place. Mandsford 22:06, 13 November 2010 (UTC) reply
