This politician looks like he's notable (though I haven't checked thoroughly), but an editor has reverted my challenge of a A7 tag on it, so I'm bringing discussion here. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 23:37, 14 July 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. He's a pretty big nobody. Nothing notable about him. Me-123567-Me ( talk) 23:45, 14 July 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Under WP:NPOL, leaders of fringe political parties are allowed to have articles on Wikipedia if they can be properly sourced enough to pass WP:GNG as an individual — but being a party leader is not a notability freebie that entitles a person to keep an unsourced or poorly sourced article just because they exist(ed). The sourcing here is inadequate at best, and the article does not make a strong claim that he's notable for anything else besides leading a fringe party. Delete.

  • Delete: Looks like the career of a nobody politician trying desperately to be somebody and failing. Fails WP:BIO going away. And I wouldn't even say he's "led" a fringe party, unless declaring yourself the "head" of a "party" that never gets registered counts. Nha Trang Allons! 13:14, 15 July 2015 (UTC) reply
