Candidate to office without any other claim to notability Grahame ( talk) 23:20, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Australia-related deletion discussions. Grahame ( talk) 23:23, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. This candidate for office had a feature article on the front page of a major newspaper and several television news stories about her being a candidate who had a drug charge in her past. This kind of state-wide coverage for a candidate is rare, which is why I felt she was notable when I created the page. AlexinaDuel ( talk) 23:33, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

- Delete. I was going to wait until tomorrow since then the election will be over; obviously this !vote is contingent on her losing, which she most likely will. To AlexinaDuel: that is what WP:ONEEVENT is for. Frickeg ( talk) 01:06, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
- No argument from me on the outcome of the election, nor on the one event categorisation. I considered a more appropriate title rather than the name, but got stuck. "Edwina Lloyd Labor Candidate With A Prior Cocaine Charge" didn't seem right. These are editing questions from my perspective and not deletion ones. AlexinaDuel ( talk) 06:00, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
- There is possibly a place for a small amount of coverage (less than a paragraph) on her somewhere. In the past we have put it in the results pages where all the results are collected. Frickeg ( talk) 07:32, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
- I have no problem with additional places. I do maintain my original view. Though currently consensus is against me, and that will rule the day, as it should. AlexinaDuel ( talk) 07:39, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
- Delete. She's not even the first NSW candidate in recent history to attract media over past drug usage, with the much more notable City of Sydney councillor and Lord Mayoral candidate Irene Doutney receiving similar attention a couple of years ago, and she has no claim to notability besides this. It's a BLP issue to have an article entirely about the fact a losing candidate had a history of involvement with drugs. I would not be opposed to including mention of it in an electorate-level writeup at the soon-to-be-created Results of the New South Wales state election, 2015 - as Frickeg says, this is something we have done before elsewhere and has worked. (This is with the caveat that, if it is added there, information about the rest of the race needs to go in as well or it'll be another BLP issue.) The Drover's Wife ( talk) 08:51, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
- Delete, as it turns out, she hasn't been elected, and WP:ONEEVENT stuff from muckraking tabloids is not anything good to base a BLP on. Lankiveil ( speak to me) 10:24, 28 March 2015 (UTC).
- Delete non winning and non notable candidate. AlbinoFerret 16:41, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
- Keep The sources are independent of her and are reliable. WP:BASIC is met. I dont see any muckraking tabloids. It's possible the editors removed the unreliable sources. It looks good now. Paperpencils ( talk)Paperpencils
