to the party, without prejudice against recreation in the future if and when her coverage improves. It is ''not'' true that all political party leaders in Canadian politics are automatically handed a notability freebie just for existing as leaders. Rather, political party leaders are permitted articles in one of two specific instances: either (a) they already hold an inherently notable -passing role, such as actually being a member of the party's legislative caucus, ''alongside'' their leadership of the party, or (b) it is possible to write and |reliably source a ''substantial'' article that says significantly ''more'' about the person than just the mere fact that they led a political party. If the article is not actually able to say ''more'' than their name being mentioned in the party's article ''already does'', because the coverage of their leadership is that limited, then a standalone BLP is not appropriate.And Me-1234567-Me's "precedent" list above is not binding, either, as those are all old discussions that were conducted ''before'' our notability standards for politicians were tightened up, and the number of political party leaders that we have ''deleted'' for ''not'' having enough coverage to properly support a standalone BLP ''vastly'' exceeds just ''six''.If her coverage improves between now and the convention, then by all means a separate article about her can be created when that happens — but as of today, a brief 24-hour blip of coverage verifying the fact that she was named interim leader of the party, while not being ''about'' her in any ''depth'', is not in and of itself enough — being a party leader is ''not'' an instant guarantee of "inherent" notability if the coverage isn't good enough to get her over
