Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Not A Party
As this is my first involvement in a deletion discussion, I've tried to learn more about the process. I'll set out all my thoughts here in part as a learning exercise for myself. To merit an article, a topic must be notable, that is, it must have "received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". "Significant coverage" means it addresses the topics "directly and in detail". Multiple editors have now searched for these sources and while we have found independent, reliable sources, none address Not A Party directly, or in detail. They mention the party in passing and in little detail. With a lack of 'significant coverage', the topic is not notable and should be deleted. My previous comments on "we have done this before" aren't appropriate as the "|What about article X?" argument should be avoided. However it does highlight that if this topic is not notable, then many other articles on political parties wold also need to be considered for deletion. As I said before I am new to this but would be interested in feedback if I have correctly interpreted the issue
