Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ben Rankin
Being a political candidate is generally not sufficient in my view to meet  unless you have other significant achievements to your name. This guy is the President of the local Greens at his University and a political hopeful in the forthcoming Canadian elections. If there was an article on the relevant electorate in the 2005 Canadian elections, it should be merged to that page but he is not notable enough at this stage to have an article in his own right. If he were to be elected, he would then meet our notability criteria but I wouldn't have my money on it
