Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Henry Sias
Being a non-winning candidate for political office is not grounds for a Wikipedia article in and of itself — if you cannot demonstrate and |properly source that he was ''already'' eligible for a Wikipedia article for some other reason ''independent'' of his candidacy, then he has to ''win'' the election to get an article ''because'' election per se. (And no, being the first transgender candidate for a statewide office is not, in and of itself, a notability boost over other unelected candidates either.) And five pieces of campaign coverage is not enough to get him over  in ''lieu'' of failing NPOL either, as ''every'' candidate in ''any'' election could ''always'' show five pieces of local campaign coverage — so that just falls under . And nothing claimed or sourced here shows any preexisting notability for anything either
