Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Atlantic County Board of Chosen Freeholders
three, '''Merge''' one, per Alansohn. On its surface, the  guideline seems to support delete. However, there is also a proposed guideline, Wikipedia:Candidates and elections, which seems to go beyond the current  guideline. It states, ''"As a compromise between those who would keep all candidate articles and those who would delete all articles on yet-unelected candidates, this guideline states that articles on elections should be written before articles on individual candidates. Only if and when there is enough independent, verifiable information to write a non-stub article on a candidate should one be written."'' Well, if an article can be written about a ''candidate'' that satisfies these criteria, then surely by extension, an article can be written about the ''election winner'', i.e., officeholder/incumbent. Although the proposed guideline seems to contemplate state-level elections, given the examples that are provided, the policy is still open to discussion and could be extended to county-level elections. Deleting articles in the absence of a clear policy or guideline is not a good idea, especially when said articles are part of a WikiProject that is committed to expanding them
