Deletion of Miller v. Campbell

Comment: This is a silly nomination given the timing—like nominating an article on ''Bush v. Palm Beach County'' for deletion on Nov. 18, 2000 because nothing has happened ''yet''. Nor can the subject matter simply be merged into another article, because it pertains to at least two other articles, Joe Miller and United States Senate election in Alaska, 2010. Deleting the article now makes no sense if you consider the two possible ways this could play out: (1) The case could go nowhere, or (2) it could become groundbreaking and controversial. In a month, we will know which. If we delete the article now, and scenario (2) happens, we will have to create an article on the case, and so deleting it will waste everyone's time in creating, debating, deleting, and then recreating the article. Alternatively, if we leave the article in place and scenario (1) happens, we can delete the article at that point. There is no cost to leaving it, no benefit to deleting it, and it should stay until we see how this plays out. |Think it through. Keep the article for now and let's revisit the question in a month. - Simon Dodd
