Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Larry Sanders (Green Party)
When I first knew of the page and the AFD discussion, many months ago, I felt "fair enough, delete it, I can't be bothered to get involved" - nothing about his political role in England made a really clear-cut case for him to have a page, even if on balance I might have kept it myself.  But looking now at , I see that "People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject."  He ''is'' receiving significant coverage - the fact that just at the moment it is in largest part in connection with his brother does not mean that he is not receiving it.  It wasn't until today that I made any connection between him and his brother, but I looked today at the Larry Sanders (Green Party) page ''precisely'' to find out whether the person that was about to be interviewed on BBC Radio4 is the same as the Green Party politician that I ''already'' knew of (and as it happens the appearance on BBC Radio4 ''did'' mention his standing for the UK Parliament as a Green Party candidate).  If connection with a news story means somebody who is already at least close to notability gets further "significant coverage" in RS, it seems to me that there isn't real scope for debate.  And yes, I know : but "news coverage of this individual does go beyond the context of a single event" - Larry was ''already'' close enough to being notable without the connection to his brother for an article about him to be reasonable
