Denise Paul Hatch[edit]

Why was the entry under notable persons for Denise Paul Hatch removed ? 172.58.122.196 (talk) 15:15, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As my edit comment stated, the cited Ballotpedia reference says nothing about her 2022 primary run. Nor does it say anything about her being the first woman constable in Indiana, etc. The link to her campaign website is not considered a reliable source because it is, in effect, self-published. So there are no WP:RS reliable sources for the information, which Wikipedia requires especially for a living person.

Furthermore, even if reliable sources were provided, I don't think that those facts would make her notable for Wikipedia purposes - see WP:BIO. Generally, it is best to first create her Wikipedia article before adding her to a list a notable people.

Finally, I'm copying the message you left on my talk page so that the discussion can be in one place:

Why did you remove Denise Paul Hatch the Center Township Constable Elect under Center Township Notable Persons? Marion County Election results have been certified and she won the contested primary as can be seen at Marion county election board results page and IS the Center Township Constable ELECT until Nov election and Jan 1 swearing in. She is running uncontested with no challenger in the Nov general election. I suspect slated establishment partisanship on your behalf is the real reason for the deletion.

Please read WP:GOODFAITH. My reasons for removing the material are as I stated. It was definitely not "establishment partisanship", and I resent your suggesting that it was before even discussing it with me. Indyguy (talk) 15:56, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
