Mission?[edit]
I'm not seeing the mission relevance here.
- Analyzing and refuting pseudoscience and the anti-science movement;
- Documenting the full range of crank ideas;
- Explorations of authoritarianism and fundamentalism;
- Analysis and criticism of how these subjects are handled in the media.
Looks like he's just some politician. Bob"Life is short and (insert adjective)" 09:48, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- So a politician who is anti-LGBT does not support crank ideas?
- Well, that's something new I've learned about you...-Flandres (talk) 14:48, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- If we had an article on every politician in the world who was in some way anti-LGBT we would have an enormous number of articles. For that matter we could include every politician who is pro LGBT and have an even bigger number of articles. The question is whether this politician in particular warrants an article. We have had the same problem with you-tubers. The fact that they have a position on some issue does not make them article-worthy.Bob"Life is short and (insert adjective)" 14:59, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- Ahn Cheol-soo is one of politicians who have fanatical supporters in South Korea. In addition, he is the most likely candidate to win the Seoul mayoral election." (He has not yet held an election.)--Umaru16 (talk) 16:00, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- Do he or his supporters have any views which are further outside the mainstream than many other politicians in that country? Flat Earth, homeopathy, Young Earth?Bob"Life is short and (insert adjective)" 16:53, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
- I don't really think mayoral candidates are worth bothering about. He seems like a fairly standard conservative. Perhaps this can go back to mainspace if he wins the election. Avida Dollarsher again 18:55, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Old guard gonna old guard. How is Sheriff Joe more relevant than Mr Ahn here? Cause he's American? — Oxyaena Harass 20:17, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- For the same reason Sheriff Joe is more relevant than every other American Sheriff; he’s clearly the exception, not the rule. Bob isn’t even American. Christopher (talk) 20:22, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
