Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pupienus and Balbinus
Voting here primarily to counteract the anti-historical !vote from Icewhiz (and possibly James500 if he unstrikes his above !vote after re-evaluating). Citing Presidency of Donald Trump is one of the worst cases of  I've ever seen, as a lot less can be written about Roman emperors than about contemporary American presidents simply by virtue of a lot less being known about them, and a reasonable case could be made for most Roman emperors that they are only notable as Roman emperors (definitely not the case for Trump, who had a standalone article for years before he even entered politics), so having a separate article on the emperorship of this or that emperor would make the biographical article named for them redundant. No one would have ever heard about most Roman emperors more than a century or so after their deaths had they not become emperor for however short a time
