Keep. Yes, the article needs some improvement, so by all means flag for {{refimprove}} — but serving in the national legislature is a straight pass of
WP:NPOL #1, and the fact that his term was in the 1980s and 1990s means that his best sources aren't going to be found on Google. Notability is based on the
existence of suitable sources, not necessarily the current quality of the article — and politicians get media coverage, you're just going to have to dig into a database of archived Norwegian media coverage to actually find it.
