- Keep – Meets WP:BIO criteria for inclusion. I also see "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article." ttonyb (talk) 22:51, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The only sources which cover Coyle in any detail are sources 9 and 10. One of them doesn't even mention Coyle by name. Still not seeing significant coverage to pass WP:GNG.--TM 02:11, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge and redirect to United States House of Representatives elections in Oklahoma, 2010#District 5* per WP:Wikipedia is not a source for election candidate biographies. Wikipedia sees many of these come election time. I interpret routine election coverage to fall under WP:NOTNEWS. Also, the coverage about the candidate is in the context of the election, so (per WP:BLP1E) redirect to the election article. Location (talk) 01:26, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
