WP:NPOLITICIAN says that unelected candidates are not inherently notable, nor does her educational position make her notable. Also fails WP:GNG. — C.Fred ( talk) 13:21, 24 October 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Delete -- Nothing but routine coverage on the recent candidacy, it's not even a major party. Nothing suggesting the subject yet meets GNG, NPROF or NPOL, in english or Nepali sources. Quite certainly a PR campaign aimed at the election (created by a COI editor). Usedtobecool  TALK  16:11, 24 October 2019 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being candidates in elections they did not win, but this makes no other strong claim that she has any preexisting notability for other reasons: neither being deputy administrator of a university, nor being on her political party's organizing committee, are instant notability freebies that would exempt a person from having to have a lot more reliable source media coverage than just a couple of short blurbs verifying and reverifying and rereverifying her unsuccessful candidacy.

Bearcat, unsuccessful-- the candidacy is for a new election, a seat made vacant prematurely, not that it makes a difference to the point. Cheers! Usedtobecool  TALK  18:05, 26 October 2019 (UTC) reply
