Comment: Does not meet WP:BIO for notability in political figures and violates WP:SOAP for self-promotion. Merely filing FEC papers does not qualify for notability. See User:Mikesmth. Djma12(talk) 01:33, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Self-promotion. Mr. Smith has not demonstrated his own notability. Just filing with the FEC is insufficient basis for inclusion in Wikipedia; filing carries no guarantee of ballot status. —Sesel 02:01, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Non-notable candidate campaigning in one state for a nationwide office. This has resulted in failing to gain other than local media coverage. Article reads like a campaign brochure, non-encyclopedic. - Nhprman 03:11, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Strong keep, but cut most of the content. Article contains two citations from mainstream press. Smith may not be notable when judged on a nationwide scale, but his Oregon campaign appears just as notable to Oregonians as numerous articles of local significance. In addition, his approach to the Presidential race sounds unique, notable for its contrast with other candidates. I agree the current article reads way too much like a campaign brochure; the Platform section should be cut in its entirety, and much of the other sections as well. (Disclosure: I'm from Oregon, but know nothing about Smith beyond what I found via this WP article.) -Pete 04:44, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Self promotion, and basically just his points of view on some issues and his ambition. Not worthy of an article. Bensmith53 09:10, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete self-evident campaign page, and doesn't stand a snowball's chance in the race. Guy (Help!) 14:08, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - While he does not meet the criteria for notability that in itself is not a criteria for deletion and should not stand alone. However, this article also does not adhere to Wikipedia's policy on biographies of living people. That is why I believe it should be deleted. --Cyrus Andiront/c 14:13, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Can any of those supporting deletion please comment on my remarks, and on whether my deletion of about 2/3 of the material impacts their position? -Pete 14:17, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
