Subject fails WP:GNG and WP:JUDGE. Failed nominees for federal judgeships are not inherently notable. Let'srun (talk) 00:31, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. But article will need a rework for BLP issues, as it's not focused on notability right now. I see quite a bit of independent secondary coverage of the subject's judicial opinions and aspects of their background eg [1][2][3][4], and much more. —siro χ o 01:07, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. For the same reasons mentioned above.

Alternative proposal: Merge all otherwise non-notable failed presidential judicial nominees into a single article along the lines of Unsuccessful Donald Trump judicial nominations. We can preserve a truncated form of the data in one place, without reaching individual notability concerns. BD2412 T 21:08, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: If my proposal is accepted, I'll create the article. It shouldn't take long. BD2412 T 00:47, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I closed another AFD based on your proposal, (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dirk B. Paloutzian) but, to be honest, all of these judicial AFDs are running together in my memory. I had no idea there were so many judges on the project. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 02:04, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Clearly fails WP:GNG, and the additional sources presented don't really cover him - they're all about the state's governor. Non-notable judicial nominee. SportingFlyer T·C 12:37, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Not much feedback on BD2412's proposal so I guess this discussion will have to close based on the response of participants alone.

Support proposal of BD2412 - that sounds like a good idea to me. I'd be happy to help on that article; if it is created, please let me know on my talk page. Actualcpscm (talk) 13:46, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
