The result was redirect to California_State_Assembly_elections,_2012#District_28. Per MelanieN and PRESERVE. If he wins, restoring the article will be easier this way.  — Crisco 1492 (talk) 01:11, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

I previously put a :WP:PROD on this biography on grounds "No evidence that the subject meets the notability criteria." The Prod was removed by an IP. The references in the article establish that the subject works as a lawyer, also lectures at a School of Law and is a political candidate. However none of these looks sufficiently substantial to meet the Notability guidelines, whether as WP:ACADEMIC or :WP:POLITICIAN, so I am bringing the article to AfD on the same rationale as the earlier Prod.

  • Delete His only claim to fame seems to be that he was a trustee of a community college and that he's a political candidate. If he wins his election, whoever wrote this could always ask for undeletion. ALH (talk) 21:30, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

  • Redirect/merge to California State Assembly elections, 2012#District 28 per usual practice for political candidates who are not otherwise notable. WP:POLITICIAN says "In the case of candidates for political office who do not meet this (notability) guideline, the general rule is to redirect to an appropriate page covering the election or political office sought in lieu of deletion. Relevant material from the biographical article can be merged into the election or political office page if appropriate." At least he did make it into the November general election. --MelanieN (talk) 03:22, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
