Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jaime Battiste
Just to be clear, this article has existed since 2015, but he only became a political candidate for the first time in 2019 and the article doesn't even actually ''mention'' that fact ''at all'' yet, so the upcoming federal election really doesn't have anything to do with why this exists. That said, I'm still not convinced that it adequately demonstrates his notability on the grounds that it was actually going for — none of his career accomplishments are "inherent" notability clinchers that would automatically guarantee him an article just because he exists, but this is referenced entirely to a mix of |primary sources that aren't support for notability at all and glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage of other things or people, not to any strong evidence that ''he'' has been the ''subject'' of enough |reliable source coverage to clear . And on both Google and ProQuest searches, I'm just finding more of the same, and ''not'' finding sources that actually bolster his notability by being substantively about him. Obviously no prejudice against recreation after October 20 if he wins the seat, but nothing here is enough to already make him eligible for an article today — and even if the election candidacy were added to the article, that wouldn't change anything since candidates don't get articles just for being candidates either
