Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kirby Delauter
I think this is a case where our notability guidelines don't serve us well: when press publicity for silly reasons is given too much weight. However, the article clearly shows  has been met with substantial, etc. coverage. Also, prior coverage demonstrates the topic does not fail under "1E" considerations. Our documented requirements for having articles should be improved. I was tempted to !vote ''delete'' on the basis that our guidelines do not lead to a sensible result in this case. However, I think for politicians especially we should stick to the "rules" to avoid any appearance of political bias and so we ought to keep the article
