TOO SOON. He just started. All of the other articles about U.S. governorships are high profile governorships where the officeholder had 2+ terms. Furthermore, they sought, are seeking, or are speculated to seek the Presidency. Most are also high profile individuals that are or are almost household names. There are plenty of other governorships that are more notable than this and don't have an article yet. I do think we should have more of these articles, but I don't see why we can't cover this particular governorship in the Phil Murphy and Government of New Jersey pages. — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs) 01:11, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

- KEEP Nomination is completely based in Misplaced Pages:Other stuff exists. It suggests that there "should be more of these articles" and that same time it should be merged/re-directed to into another. It cites comparisons and contrasts that do not consider the merits of the article in and of itself and creates criteria that are not policy based, but expresses non-objective personal beliefs/preference. The cited essay TOO SOON, simply says: "Generally speaking, the various notability criteria that guide editors in creating articles, require that the topic being considered be itself verifiable in independent secondary reliable sources. Misplaced Pages is not a crystal ball, nor is it a collection of unverifiable content. It is an encyclopedia that must be reliable. If sources do not exist, it is generally too soon for an article on that topic to be considered." and is not applicable here: the article is properly sourced, so clearly that is not the case here. It easily fulfills Misplaced Pages:Verifiability.Djflem (talk) 01:38, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
- Keep The article, as it exists, provides dozens of reliable and verifiable sources about the Governorship of Phil Murphy; the notability standard is clearly satisfied here. There is no requirement that some number of terms or years must be served before such an article may be created. Alansohn (talk) 02:04, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
- Selective Merge- to Phil Murphy. It is WP:TOOSOON, the guy has only been governor for one month, he really hasn't done much yet. What the article actually describes is his campaign platform, not what he has actually done. Most of this is already covered in the Phil Murphy article. If I were to remove all the campaign promises from the article, we'd be left with only a few sentences about what he has actually accomplished. Maybe a year or two from now when we start running out of room at the Phil Murphy article it may become appropriate to spin this out.--Rusf10 (talk) 02:29, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
