Member of a lower regional house (i.e. not national), does not appear to pass NPOL. Indeed there is only an article on Taraba State House of Assembly because the same editor created it. Created by a now indefintely-blocked paid editor. Black Kite (talk) 19:14, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Politicians and Nigeria. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 20:45, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep — The page subject is a former Assembly Speaker, who used to hold (and arguably retains) substantial influence in Taraba state politics; members of subnational legislatures often have pages, especially if they have held a leadership position in the chamber. It is a poorly-written page but that does not warrant the subject non-notable. Watercheetah99 ( talk) 21:38, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: Nigerian state legislators do pass WP:NPOL, as Nigeria is a federal country akin to the United States or India. Curbon7 ( talk) 00:45, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep per Curbon7. Mccapra ( talk) 07:23, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep @ Black Kite: this might interest you: WP:NSUBPOL. Per WP:NPOL, overwhelming community consensus that members of subnational parliaments in federal systems are presumed notable. Regards, -- Goldsztajn ( talk) 09:35, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: Disappointing AfD, subject clearly passes WP:NSUBPOL as a former speaker of a state house of assembly ( notability does not expire). Vanderwaalforces ( talk) 12:04, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
