Your candidate articles

Candidates for municipal offices generally won't meet our notability criteria, see WP:POLITICIAN. Also, the drafts seem to be campaign advertising/promotional of the subjects, see WP:NPOV. NawlinWiki (talk) 20:04, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@NawlinWiki: Hey, I'm working with Committee of Seventy and crowdpac.com (both organizations dedicated to bipartisan accountability in government) to get info out on all of the candidates prior to the November election. Basically, the crowdpac profile for the candidate would ideally link to a wiki-page. Right now I'm just trying to get articles up for every candidate, hence the poverty of info at the moment. The articles will be updated with more detailed info from media coverage once their sites are all created. With the weak turnout and high level of corruption in our city, it's really ideal for us to make candidate info as accessible as possible. If you have any tips, please let me know.
