Natalie Odd is a worthwhile person to write about, considering her candidacy for the federal election in this riding; if you look at the page "calgary centre" which explains the history of the riding in which she is running, other competitors have their own reference points as well - this is simply ensuring that she has the same coverage as the other people competing in that same riding.
- The problem is that being a candidate is not, in and of itself, notable. Accordingly, there is nothing in the article that asserts she is notable. —C.Fred (talk) 03:22, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
Right, so that is fine - but along the lines of "notability" then, why do pages like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heesung_Kim#Calgary_Centre
and this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyler_Kinch#Calgary_Centre
exist? If the same applied to those listings of people, which it should, those lists of people shouldn't exist in wikipedia either; rather those lists should be simply a list of "notable" candidates, no? Anonymous3929 (talk) 03:33, 23 September 2008 (UTC)anon3929
- You're correct. You may remove them if you like. Others may try to add them back, in which case you can discuss it with them on the relevant Talk page. — X S G 04:27, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- Good point. Accordingly, I've boldly removed the Natalie Odd article; I've redirected to Green Party candidates, 2008 Canadian federal election#Calgary Centre, consistent with the Kim and Kinch redirects. —C.Fred (talk) 04:28, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
- ...since the overall slate of candidates is notable, even if many individual candidates aren't. —C.Fred (talk) 04:29, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
