Non-notable political party. Only stood three candidates in one election and the party no longer exists. Most of the sources in the article are either local, trivial mentions or self-published, fails WP:SIGCOV. No more notable than Al-Zebabist Nation of Ooog, who stood in the same election and garnered a similar level of coverage, and whose article was deleted on notability grounds. – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 13:14, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete/redirect to Bez (dancer). Making up a name for yourself so you can get 1% of the vote does not make you a real party with notability. All sources are with respect to Bez or plus one local that's more about Farage. Reywas92^Talk 20:09, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Policies WP:PRESERVE WP:ATD. Article has reliable sources and notability is not temporary. Lightburst (talk) 21:13, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- Just saying "There are Alternative to Deletion" and "I don't like deleting things" is not an argument to keep. Sources merely being reliable is not an argument to keep either when they are brief mentions with respect to its founder. The party was never notable on its own in the first place, its founder is. If you want an WP:ATD, about about merge to Bez? Reywas92^Talk 21:19, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The article meets GNG with RS. It is an easy Keep based on our guidelines and policies. Lightburst (talk) 21:24, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not notable as a political party. No notable electoral success. No notable political legacy. Just existing as a political party does not give automatic credibility to an organisation. doktorb _words^deeds 05:49, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
