[edit] Spectre (political party)

Spectre (political party) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

This pressure group was set to stand in elections and by-elections from its formation 2 years ago. It has not stood any candidates at any of the elections since 2006. It did not stand or nominate a candidate in the Sedgefield constituency by-election once of Tony Blair, one of their apparant bete noir. Their website has not been updated for years from what I can gather. Non-notable and apparantly non-functioning pressure group. doktorb wordsdeeds 12:06, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Reverse Merge Reg Keys into this article. --brewcrewer (yada, yada) 00:57, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep and merge with Reg Keys, as the party primarily got its notability from its founder. My gut feeling is that the resultant article should be called Reg Keys, but either way, the articles can be split out later if there are size problems. I feel this should not have come to AfD, as it is clearly verifiable and merges are easy to do without bureaucracy. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 15:34, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge with Reg Keys. If the party existed then a reverse-merge might be in order. Once the party either wins a race, spoils a race, or causes another party with representation to take on its ideas, then it will have notability in its own right. Until then, nope. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 18:37, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge per above. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 20:22, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect - notable primarily in relation to Reg Keys, so let's redirect it there. Warofdreams talk 12:46, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
