Doesn't add anything that isn't at 2024 Libertarian Party presidential primaries#Results already. Only sourcing is an overview of all North Carolina elections, a FOX News local station, a Facebook post, and two X (Twitter) posts. A search doesn't yield anything significant for the Libertarian primary for North Carolina. reppop^talk 16:52, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Unnecessary redundant content fork lacking sources to demonstrate notability per WP:EVENTCRIT. No content not covered at existing main article. The idea we need 50 seperate pages for a primary election of a minor party is just absolutely ludicrous. AusLondonder (talk) 17:14, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

*:You are wrong when saying “ No content not covered at existing main article.”. There is a full list of candidates on the ballots, in depth writing about write-in campaigns, and a map of the counties and their winners. And this party is the 3rd most popular party in the USA, and has many Members from each state, and has qualified for primaries in many states. All political parties are equal, mate. Don’t discriminate. GeorgeNotFound23 (talk) 21:17, 12 March 2024 (UTC)— GeorgeNotFound23 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

• Redirect to 2024 Libertarian Party presidential primaries#Results. There is no significant coverage about this particular primary. Redirecting to the results in the main article would provide this information to anybody looking for this. -- Whpq (talk) 18:27, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to 2024 Libertarian Party presidential primaries#Results. The libertarian primaries don't have enough coverage or content to warrant individual state articles. Reywas92^Talk 20:08, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: this election was highly monitored in many news sources. It’s the only 2024 Libertarian election where a non-candidate won the primary. It was one of four historic 2024 Libertarian Super Tuesday States. It isn’t a bad Wikipedia page. It has more information than the 2024 Libertarian Party presidential primaries Results page. It has a list of candidates who were on the ballot. Had paragraphs about write-in campaigns. It would be hypocritical to delete this page. And why now? This page was made before Super Tuesday. And don’t forget, all political parties are equal. If you delete this, than people have the right to delete 2024 North Carolina Republican presidential primary. It would show that Wikipedia is bias towards the 2 party system (this is coming from an employee and friend of a Conservative Democrat).

Overall, just don’t delete it. It’s a good page. They are targeting all the 2024 Libertarian Super Tuesday states Wikipedia. And don’t forget what happened to the page of Ryan Binkley. They deleted his page twice, and it was remade a third time, and it’s still here. That’s what’s gonna happen with California, NC, and Oklahoma.

I see that you haven't looked at Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions, specifically WP:ILIKEIT, WP:USEFUL, WP:HARMLESS, and WP:LOOKSGOOD. The page doesn't have the sources to cover WP:GNG, not even for WP:SIGCOV, in order to merit its own page. What sources are you talking about that are monitoring it? I only see general primary elections, which don't count towards coverage of the Libertarian election because its only a mention. And don't bring up Brinkley, especially since there are more way sources than this page. Remake it if you want, only if there are actual good sources that can have the page survive a second, or even a third deletion. reppop^talk 23:09, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And please take a look at the other arguments on both this and the California page. reppop^talk 23:12, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No one's "targeting" anything, Wikipedia just doesn't need duplicative articles that don't have significant independent coverage. Your friend's tweet you added is humorous but not a good source. And it's "biased" not "bias"... Reywas92^Talk 04:32, 12 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

*:Keep: This article has a lot more information that the Genaral election page. If there’s not enough references, how can you help? Add more references! I see a ton I will add! Or, I’ll just contact Mr. LordBirdWord and he can do it. But this is a well made article. I’ve fact checked it, and everything it says is true!

• Keep: Subject received WP:GNG level coverage along with the 'major' parties. Let'srun (talk) 01:44, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Could you please identify this significant coverage that establishes notability is met? It certainly isn't in the article's references. -- Whpq (talk) 02:16, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  My view is that is not significant coverage. -- Whpq (talk) 19:31, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  It’s a Fox News Branch. They have many of them, because the main one can’t cover everything. Fox Carolina covered the Democratic and Republican ones, and they are deemed as significant there. LordBirdWord (talk) 18:31, 17 March 2024 (UTC)( Blocked sockpuppeteer)[reply]

• Redirect to to 2024 Libertarian Party presidential primaries#Results per WP:NOPAGE, WP:EVENTCRIT and WP:REDUNDANTFORK. Per nom. and others, it lacks the significant coverage necessary to warrant a standalone page, and all of the the relevant info contained here is already on the main primaries page.

• Redirect per previous votes. BottleOfChocolateMilk (talk) 02:33, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep For 2020 there is a 2020_Libertarian_Party_presidential_primaries page and a Results of the 2020_Libertarian_Party_presidential_primaries which seems like a very clunky way to go about it. An approach mirroring how these elections are included for the establishment parties is more uniform. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Okcgunner (talk • contribs) 15:09, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  This is a very good argument though yall. LordBirdWord (talk) 13:15, 17 March 2024 (UTC)( Blocked sockpuppeteer)[reply]

• Delete or redirect - this poorly attended election does not look like it passes WP:GNG - there's one article at most which covers it directly, which is currently in the article - but no problem with keeping the results on another page. SportingFlyer T·C 17:10, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
