Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 18:48, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Nominee has been reported by committee.  Establishes eligibility as a magistrate judge who was nominated to district court judge.  Snickers2686 ( talk ) 19:23, 29 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Per the WP:USCJN section on U.S. District Court judges, "Nominees whose nomination has not yet come to a vote are not inherently notable. In practice, most such nominees will be confirmed by the Senate, at which point their notability will become inherent".  Magistrate judges don't fulfill that criteria on its own.  Let'srun ( talk ) 02:07, 30 June 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The WP:USCJN section on U.S. District Court judges directive states a nomination doesn't mean they are inherently notable but that does not mean the nominees aren't notable.  A person is never nominated to an equal branch of government for a lifetime appointment by the leader of the executive branch without having a lengthy career & background.  All of the nominees have references to their careers in the press.  The president's own announcement details each of their bios.  MIAJudges ( talk ) 00:51, 1 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep ; the Pueblo Chieftain sources and those regarding Internet question stumbles, for me, satisfy GNG.

Thanks, Sandstein 14:52, 7 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete Not meeting notability, low level judge, sources are basically talking about the appointment.  Oaktree b ( talk ) 15:28, 7 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] I wouldn't necessarily agree; if the content and sources were restricted to the nomination itself, I'd go for deletion or draftification.  But several of the later sources focus on Crews's stumbles in a confirmation hearing; that then is about him as opposed to the nomination itself.  These stumbles aren't routine; that's why people and media have seized upon them.

Talk!  18:15, 14 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep meets GNG Andre 🚐 03:17, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Would you care to explain your policy-based rationale for this article meeting GNG?  Let'srun ( talk ) 12:38, 16 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep: the sources currently in the article demonstrate that he meets WP:GNG .  Specifically, there is coverage of him in major national outlets such as Bloomberg and NBC.  Marquardtika ( talk ) 19:00, 19 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep: Kato Crews is a notable figure in the American judiciary, serving as a United States magistrate judge and currently nominated to serve as a district judge, positions of considerable relevance and influence in the legal landscape of the United States.  The page cites reliable secondary sources, like judiciary committee documents, press releases from senators, and reputable news outlets that detail his professional career and accomplishments, thereby establishing the subject's notability.  Should be kept I think.  Bash7oven ( talk ) 15:52, 20 July 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep: Current service as a federal magistrate judge meets WP:JUDGE .
