  • Delete per WP:IINFO. We really need this dumping of Philippino local election details to stop. --Stfg (talk) 10:02, 24 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per WP:IINFO. Do we really need an article for all congressional races in the Philippines next year? As a suggestion, should you nominate any more articles, it would help to have just a single mass nomination rather than several individual AfDs.

  • Relister's comment: After the above discussion was closed as "delete", a review at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2012 December 2 concluded that it should be relisted.  Sandstein  10:16, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep This will certainly be notable after it occurs (election to a national legislature of a populous nation) and I think there's enough hard information for it not to be deleted as premature. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:52, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep -- these are elections to a national legislature. These are notable by default. If these are still in a sorry state by June 2013, then nominate it. A similar article was nominated in 2010 (see this) and pretty much every reason to delete (being a placeholder article, too trivial, WP:CRYSTAL) has been substantially refuted. I can't even imagine "Do we really need an article for all congressional races in the Philippines next year? " as a valid argument in any AFD. Again, revisit in June 2013 (or after the election), and if it's shitty, I'd be more than happy to support its deletion, provided all of the similar articles for the 2013 House of Representatives elections are also deleted. –HTD 13:18, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Standard type of article --we have these for all congressional districts in the US, and we should for other countries also. Elections to a national legislature are considered national, not local election, for our purpose, because there can reasonably be general interest, not merely local interest from the district. DGG ( talk ) 20:27, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Elections to national legislatures are very notable. Considering this election is in May, it is not too soon. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 22:22, 6 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, we have tons of articles like this on US elections, and the Philippines is by no means less important than the US. I think we could have articles down to constituency level in every national election of any country. --Soman (talk) 08:03, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - It appears that I was not that familiar with the notability guidelines for legislative elections, and for that I apologize. Since it appears that such elections elsewhere have articles too, this should probably be kept in order to avoid systemic bias. I still think the article needs more sources though.
