Deletion of Animal Protection Party

Comment: Four council candidates plus a bit of coverage in local news and indymedia is borderline. However, if we're going to keep this, we should give some weighting to what the sources covered this party for - namely, that one of their candidates served time for arson. That's  for you

Comment: The guideline for |politicians suggests that someone must hold a political office, rather than have just run for it. I think a similar standard can be applied here - the Animal Protection Party has not won any seats and does not seem to have had any significant coverage beyond election results. In addition, the guidelines for |not-for-profit organisations suggests that an organisation is notable if its activities are on a national or international scale. In this case, the party has run for a few local seats in elections and has had not broadly national campaign, as far as I am aware. Thus, it does not seem to meet either of the most relevant guidelines. Having said that, evidence of significant coverage in reliable sources would make the above reasoning redundant. I am not convinced that this has been provided yet; however, if adequate coverage can be found, I will be willing to change my mind
