Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Syed Taj
People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being unsuccessful candidates for political office — if you cannot make and properly source a credible claim of ''preexisting'' notability for other reasons that would already have gotten him an article ''anyway'', then he has to ''win'' the election, not just run in it, to become notable as a politician. And candidates do not get a  pass that exempts them from  just because some campaign coverage exists, either, because some campaign coverage ''always'' exists for ''every'' candidate ''everywhere''. But the volume of campaign coverage shown here is ''not'' large enough to deem him a special case over and above most other 2012 congressional candidates
