The result was speedy keep. Clearly notable topic with failure to do a BEFORE search and therefore closing it per WP:SKCRIT. (non-admin closure) KGirlTrucker81^{huh? what I've been doing} 16:11, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Donald Trump on social media[edit]

This article is not WP:NOTE. Or should we create an article about every social media user which is somehow known? Rævhuld (talk) 04:20, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Clearly notable; has significant coverage in in-depth sources over a series of years; is not just politically significant, but legally and socially significant as well. Five seconds of review could easily confirm this; a WP:TROUT to the nominator for a poorly thought-out AfD. Neutrality^talk 04:24, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Donald Trump is president of the United States. He got elected in large part because of his novel use of social media, including Twitter. His use of social media has also been relevant in foreign affairs, e.g. 2017 Qatar diplomatic crisis. This is clearly notable material, and clearly cannot be on the Donald Trump page. In conclusion, this page must be kept. Power~enwiki (talk) 04:54, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. This material belongs in wikipedia somewhere. It's responsibly written, extensively sourced, and significant. I hear and agree with nom's point about this setting an unhealthy precedent for "my favorite personality on social media" articles, so I'm not in love with the article title. --Lockley (talk) 05:19, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It really seems to me that it's his twitter use alone that's extremely notable -- it's one the most defining aspects of his presidency. The rest, not so much. But since the nominator is merely proposing to delete it all -- oppose deletion. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 13:03, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Snow keep There is a huge amount of coverage in secondary sources (just one example Trump Gets a Twitter Library) establishing notability. People will bring up Trump’s use of social media in casual conversation decades in the future, and historians will study it as an example of how technology affected politics.
