===[[Ben Abbotts]]===
Only claim to fame is as an unsuccessful election candidate. Pages on other unsuccessful candidates have been deleted e.g. [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Antonia Bance (second nomination)|Antonia Bance]] [[User:Timrollpickering|Timrollpickering]] 07:21, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

*'''Delete''' Failed non-notable candidate. [[User:BlueValour|BlueValour]] 08:25, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
*'''Delete''', fails [[WP:BIO]]. Come back when you win a notable office. --'''[[User:Coredesat|Coredesat]]''' <small>[[User talk:Coredesat|talk. o.o;;]]</small> 09:27, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
*'''Delete''' per [[WP:BIO]]. non-notable unsuccessful candidate--[[User:Tree Biting Conspiracy|<
*'''Delete'''. Long precedent that candidates are not notable. [[User:Dbiv|David]] | [[User talk:Dbiv|Talk]] 11:17, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
*'''Keep'''. Has stood in more than one election, has made a face for himself on the media, will probably be picked for a more winnable seat in future. I personally have no connections to him or the Lib Dems (I'm actually very anti-Lib-Dem), but I feel that as he has stood in more than one place, it will be useful for people investigating those election results to keep this article (something as a political anarak I seem to do very often). [[User:incka|Sean]] | [[User talk:incka|Talk]] 13:58, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
*'''Delete'''. Not notable, and as per Coredesat. [[User:Uncantabrigian|Uncantabrigian]] 15:01, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
*'''Merge''' useful info into the by-election article and '''Delete''' - fails [[WP:BIO]]. "Will probably be picked for a more winnable seat" is [[WP:NOT|crystal-balling]]. —[[User:Whouk|Wh]][[User:Whouk/Esperanza|<span style="color:green;">o</span>]][[User:Whouk|uk]] <small>([[User talk:Whouk|talk]])</small> 16:24, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
*'''Keep''' Is inevitable he will restand as a candidate. He is also a sitting councillor. The inforation there now will be useful for future researchers [[user:nakedbatman]]
**'''Comment''' Vote is from very new user with only thirteen edits on other pages, eleven of which on the page for the successful candidate and most of these edits bore a partisan POV trace. "Is inevitable he will restand as a candidate" is [[WP:NOT|crystal-balling]]. [[User:Timrollpickering|Timrollpickering]] 12:26, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
*'''Keep''' as a major party candidate for a national legislature. [[User:Youngamerican| ''<span style="color:blue;">young</span>''<span style="color:#CFB53B;">american</span>]] <small>([[User talk:Youngamerican|ahoy-hoy]])</small> 23:27, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
*'''Delete''' Failed non-notable candidate.[[User:Galloglass|Galloglass]] 2.00, 1 July 2006
*'''Delete''' and do not recreate until he wins a notable political office. [[User:SM247|<span style="background:maroon; color:gold;"><big>'''''SM247'''''</big></span>]][[User talk:SM247|<sup style="color:darkblue;">'''My Talk'''</sup>]] 01:24, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
*'''Keep'''. People might be interested of the candidate who almost won the by-elections even after the by-elections. Besides, it has been suggested, that there will be [http://linlithgow-libdems.blogspot.com/2006/06/vote-neill-and-you-may-have-to-vote.html a rerun] because of certain irregularities, so in that case the article would need to be re-written again.--[[User:213.243.158.41|213.243.158.41]] 18:26, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
**'''Comment''' This vote comes from an unregistered user and is an early edit. The source for the "suggested...rerun" comes from a LibDem source, so is obviously bias. [[User:Doktorbuk|doktorb]] <sub>[[User talk:Doktorbuk|words]]</sub><sup>[[Special:Contributions/Doktorbuk|deeds]]</sup> 20:39, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
***'''Comment''' In addition the ''[[Bromley Times]]'', the root source, has subsequently stated the following: [http://www.bromleytimes.co.uk/content/bromley/times/news/story.aspx?brand=BMLYTOnline&category=news&tBrand=northlondon24&tCategory=newsbmlyt&itemid=WeED30%20Jun%202006%2014%3A28%3A11%3A627 Mr Neill failed to resign his directorship until last Friday, but threatened legal action from other parties seeking to have him disqualified now seems extremely unlikely.] Keeping this page because of an extremely unlikely potential second election is [[WP:NOT|crystal-balling]].
