Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gregory Gandrud
Serving on the city council of a small city does not confer an automatic  pass, being an unelected candidate for election to the state legislature does not confer an automatic  pass, being the first out gay person to hold an otherwise non-notable political office (such as a small town city council or a state-level political party's board of directors) does not confer an automatic  pass — and the referencing here consists of three |primary sources, three namechecks of his existence in articles that aren't ''about'' him, and two articles which ''are'' about him but are mere ''blurbs'' in ''length'', so the sourcing is ''nowhere'' near good enough to hand him a  pass instead. And even if a person ''can'' be shown to ''properly'' clear a Wikipedia notability standard, he ''still'' doesn't get to start or write the article ''himself'' per our |conflict of interest rules
