Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dylan Perceval-Maxwell
achieves bare notability between some recent coverage of a controversial policy he proposed to combat racism, and significant  info that can be used to build the article into something more than just the campaign. I think a very narrow GNG pass is in effect here. NPOL is for politicians who fail to meet GNG, not some super extra special guideline that also has to be met. Even if that weren't the case, |I don't care, because in that case it's clearly a rule detrimental to building the encyclopedia and should be ignored. People expect Wikipedia to contain information about political candidates. Wikipedia seeks to be the biggest repository of free information in the world, and people have come to rely on it; it's often hard to find info about candidates, and most people would reasonably expect candidates for office to have articles. He's also run for god knows how many elections, making him a perennial candidate which can in itself create notability in certain cases. This is also a |pointy nomination (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Annamie_Paul see here, CTRL+F "WP:WAX") and should be speedy closed for that reason alone. &minus;&minus;&minus
