Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Carlos Cortiglia
Could Colonel Warden provide links to these sources? There is a related AfD for another of the losing candidates at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Siobhan Benita. What I said there seems relevant here: there were some profiles of all the candidates in the London mayoral election, as there are often profiles of losing candidates in various elections around the world. These pertain purely to the candidates' roles in the campaign for that election. Thus, any useful content can be merged to London mayoral election, 2012.  is a brief statement, so let me go through the underlying rationale.  includes this note: "Editors may reach a consensus that although a topic meets this criterion, it is not appropriate for a stand-alone article. For example, such an article may violate what Wikipedia is not". OK, so let us consider WP:NOT, in particular  is useful guidance here: I quote, "Wikipedia considers the enduring notability of persons and events. While news coverage can be useful source material for encyclopedic topics, most newsworthy events do not qualify for inclusion." I see no enduring notability for in either this or the Siobhan Benita case. There's also, critically, "Who's who. Even when an event is notable, individuals involved in it may not be. Unless news coverage of an individual goes beyond the context of a single event, our coverage of that individual should be limited to the article about that event, in proportion to their importance to the overall topic." The news coverage of Mr Cortiglia is within the context of a single event, the London mayoral election, 2012, ergo our coverage should "be limited to the article about that event
