I disagree with deleting this page. All this information can not be found all on one page on the internet. It took newspaper archives, SoS searches, and more. Also with all the other party chair/ executive director pages on Wikipedia for Idaho and other states have more or less the same amount of information yet none of them are up for deletion (Wikipedia review roulette I guess) IdahoSolo ( talk) 16:36, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. Nothing here constitutes an automatic WP:NPOL pass — political party chairs can be notable if they clear WP:GNG on the sourceability, but are not guaranteed inclusion just because they exist. But the referencing here is almost entirely to primary sources that cannot carry notability at all (for example, the raw tables of election results on the Secretary of State's website do exactly nothing to aid notability at all), the amount of reliable source coverage is not enough to clear GNG in lieu, and unsuccessful candidates in primary races do not automatically get articles just for being candidates either. And yes, this is written much more like a résumé than an encyclopedia article. It's not our role to provide one-stop shopping profiles of every single person who exists, without regard to whether they clear our notability and sourceability standards or not, so "all this information can not be found all on one page on the internet" is not in and of itself a reason to keep it either.
