Palmerston is a satellite city of Darwin of 37,862 people. There are simply not enough sources to make this a worthwhile Wikipedia page. Steelkamp (talk) 06:54, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - Normally it wouldn't deserve to have a page but given the elections delays and news coverage (it is also one of only two city councils in the NT) it's notable enough AmNowEurovision (talk) 10:46, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete. I did find a few sources about the election. I can't read this one because it's paywalled, so I don't know how good it is. This ABC source is pretty good, but another one is mostly WP:ROUTINE coverage of the election result. Otherwise, I couldn't find anything that could help meet WP:GNG.

Oppose - it's a city council with a fair bit of News Corp and ABC coverage given its multiple delays

Obviously the normal non-delayed elections wouldn't/shouldn't have their own pages Totallynotarandomalt69 (talk) 10:20, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete local council elections aren't generally eligible for articles unless there's coverage "above and beyond" the election, including WP:LASTING coverage. I don't see that here. SportingFlyer T·C 12:34, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
