[edit] John Dwyer (politician)

John Dwyer (politician) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

An unsuccessful candidate in this year's Irish election who does not meet WP:BIO

For politicians this is:

Politicians who have held international, national or statewide/provincewide office, and members and former members of a national, state or provincial legislatures.[5] Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage.[6] Just being an elected local official does not guarantee notability.

Dwyer doesn't meet any of the above criteria and google [1] only shows entries related to his unsuccessful candidacy and to his work as a local councillor - which is not in itself notable. Valenciano 13:20, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
