2018 Garland mayoral special election : I WP:REFUNDed it and brought it here.  While incorrectly applied, the PROD put it best: "Routine election in suburban city, local coverage of routine results only without evidence of notability."

Nickps ( talk ) 20:17, 29 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment My fault with the PROD.  I missed a small "afd" edit summary in the page history.  Usually edit summaries for AFD nominations are a little more prominent.  Did you have  the article restored and brought it here to AFD simply because I made a mistake in the PROD 3 years ago?  Seems a little bureaucracy for its own sake.  L iz Read!

Since most of the articles from the original AfD still exist (and the ones that don't are merged somewhere else), to me that looks like there is consensus that this content belongs on WP.  The fact that I personally think this shouldn't be the case is irrelevant.  Had I phrased this as a purely procedural AfD without endorsing the PROD's reasoning it would have been clearer.  Nickps ( talk ) 12:25, 30 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.  Relisting comment: More input would be helpful given the context nom identifies in their comment of 30 March.  Please add new comments below this notice.

Thanks, The Herald (Benison) ( talk ) 02:36, 13 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep .  Unexciting but notable.  Elections are never routine.  The two relistings suggest to me that AfD participants are being overwhelmed by the volume of nominations.  Perhaps we need to tweak policy – so that a few more small-town mayors and random psychology professors are allowed in – in order to keep AfD at a manageable level.  I find using Google Translate to make sense of Indonesian-language articles that are better than their English-language counterparts is increasingly draining.

The Netherlands had many tiny municipalities (often with less then 500 inhabitants).  That those municipalities often survived only a few years is a small detail.  The Banner talk 16:02, 13 April 2024 (UTC) No worries.  It is true but I am not going to spend time on that.  [ reply ] Delete Nothing really here.  Wikipedia is not a database of election results.  * Pppery * it has begun... 03:25, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete : Per NOTDIR and nom.  The Herald (Benison) ( talk ) 05:43, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete per nom, Pppery , and The Herald .  Every local election gets local coverage, which is insufficient to show encyclopedic notability.
