WilliamJE: This isn't about
Pajala, it's about
Pajala Municipality. They are two separate entities, the latter one geographically slightly bigger than
Palestine, or more than three times the size of
Luxembourg. The article you nominated for deletion tallies more than twice the number of votes you claim would be the total number of inhabitants. /

- Comment It looks like the elections are every four years, and the article on Elections_in_Sweden has a section on municipal elections linking to the 2002 elections for various municipalities that is marked as needing to be updated. So one of the issues with this article is that it is very much out of date, or at least it's an odd duck since there aren't articles for the subsequent years. I'd recommend to merge this info with Pajala Municipality, which has some election information already and seems to be more up-to-date. Lamona ( talk) 05:08, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete, even if the municipality has 6000 people and not 2000, this is a level of detail which is not for Wikipedia. Geschichte ( talk) 09:30, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete I could see a case for an article about such a small municipal election if the municipality or the results were notable in some specific way; but they are not. Nwhyte ( talk) 01:05, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
