Deletion of Ali Zaidi (politician)

Comment: Unelected candidates for office are not deemed to pass  just because some campaign-related coverage exists — campaign-related coverage ''always'' exists for ''all'' candidates in ''all'' elections, so all candidates would always pass GNG if that were all it took. Rather, to get him into Wikipedia you would need to show that either (a) he already had enough preexisting notability to qualify for a Wikipedia article for some other reason besides his candidacy, or (b) the campaign-related coverage expanded significantly ''beyond'' the norm for that level of significance. But neither of those things is being shown here at all

Comment: Appears to be covered in numerous |reliable sources https://www.google.com/search?q=Ali+Zaidi+PTI&rlz=1C1CHWA_enAU634AU634&source=lnms&tbm=nws&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi72N6076vVAhUHTLwKHXkUA0UQ_AUICygC&biw=1366&bih=662, which is notable enough. You don't necessarily need to be an elected member of parliament to be deemed notable as a politician
