Another contested draft/redirect with zero improvement. Might be a case of WP:TOOSOON, but should have been left in draft until enough WP:SIGCOV could be added to show it passes notability requirements. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:13, 29 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep- How many of these are you trying to get deleted? This is an election for the city council of whose jurisdiction includes one of the most prestigious universities in the world. That alone passes notability requirements in my book. Last year the results got significant coverage and I don't see any reason why they won't this year. By all means request better sourcing but deletion is not the appropriate thing here. Plus here is some in depth coverage from the BBC: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-65411680 Bentley4 (talk) 13:51, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This is getting tedious. How many other 2023 election pages are you trying to get deleted? The consensus on the closed Wigan discussion was to keep, and on the still open Luton discussion you are the only one advocating deletion. By all means mark the article as needing improvement, but deletion goes too far.

Keep. If this election were a year in the future, then maybe I could see the TOOSOON argument, but right now, it's merely weeks away. Why delete it when it will almost certainly be recreated in no time?--Gen. Quon_[Talk] 21:22, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - All Cambridge City Council elections from at least 2003 have articles on Wikipedia, and it is standard for all English Local Elections to have their own council-level Wikipedia article - I do not see why this is any different. SoThisIsPeter (talk)
