An election ward of about 10,000 for a borough government. While the Southend-on-Sea government itself is no doubt notable I question whether each of the 15 electoral wards are individually. Barkeep49 (talk) 19:57, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep we have plenty of articles about wards. Nothing special about this one. Mccapra (talk) 20:37, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Mccapra, that has been pointed out to me and is fair but I couldn't find something that explains why that is and a quick AfD archive search didn't suggest anything recent here on the topic so I thought it worth exploring community consensus. Thanks for your time here. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 20:49, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
There was an AFD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Clifton East (ward) that resulted in keep. Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:17, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep It gives people the chance to further analyse the results of elections and get involved in politics. Its just like parliamentary consitutency pages Fatguyinthedeli —Preceding undated comment added 22:45, 18 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Merge or keep Chalkwell already exists and contains info on the ward already (so its kind of content forking) but then some of Category:Wards of Liverpool have separate articles like Everton, Liverpool and Everton (ward) but either way this doesn't need deleting. Crouch, Swale (talk) 21:13, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep We have hundreds of articles on local government wards in the UK. The question of their existence is probably best decided at a project-level discussion rather than individual AfDs. Number 5 7 16:53, 24 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
