Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shireen Ghorbani
Per : "Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the primary notability criterion of "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article". I don't see anything that prevents a candidate from being covered in an article, nor do they have to be notable *before* becoming a candidate. Shireen is part of a major movement this election cycle in which first-time candidates, especially women, are running for national level office. She has been covered in multiple independent sources for this, including as part of Time Magazine's coverage of this movement. The above delete recommendations do not seem to take into account Wikipedia's own guidelines. I do have a vested interest in this article being published and believe that the article is within the guidelines as stated
