The result was Move to draft space I shall close this AfD before time's up. I believe it is not helpful to discuss this for a whole week when we are six days out from an election. I shall move the draft into the project space of the New Zealand politics working group and if the person is successful, we can merge content to the draft entry that's already there for this candidate.

Delete This may change after the NZ general election, depending on whether the candidate is elected as an MP, but at this point in time BLP currently does not meet the criteria for WP:POLITICIAN. Ajf773 (talk) 19:00, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
Comment Is there any reason why this couldn't wait a week, election is 8 days away so after that we will know if the pages Nexus000 has created are relevant or not and the ones created that didn't get into parliament can be deleted then? NZ Footballs Conscience^(talk) 22:19, 14 September 2017 (UTC)
:We should move it into draft space until then. Ajf773 (talk) 00:18, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
::Agree, believe that would be better than deleting at this stage till after the election is over then a proper decision can be made NZ Footballs Conscience^(talk) 01:10, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
