*'''Redirect/Merge''' to [[Libertarian Party presidential primaries, 2016]]. Definitely a potential search term, but the current coverage seems minimal. I could see this being recreated in a few months when it's closer to the Libertarian Party convention, when coverage could theoretically increase, or especially if he were to win the party's nomination. —<B>[[User:Torchiest|Torchiest]]</B> <sup>[[User talk:Torchiest|talk]]</sup><sub style="margin-left:-3ex;">[[Special:Contributions/Torchiest|edits]]</sub> 16:09, 16 February 2016 (UTC) |

*'''Delete''' His biography reads like fan-club style trivia, and is sourced to non-notable/fringe libertarian websites. If he gets or is a serious competitor for the LP nomination, he will be mentioned more prominently by the media, and the page can be created at that point. Right now he isn't notable.

*'''Delete''' - this is obviously a self-written promo article for a minor candidate, with very little to no reputable sourcing for notability. [[Special:Contributions/68.190.174.4|68.190.174.4]] ([[User talk:68.190.174.4|talk]]) 02:16, 17 February 2016 (UTC) |

Subject dosen't appear to meet general notability guidelines as laid out in WP:42. Per WP:NPOL, just being an unelected candidate for office does not automatically confer notability. The sources in the article are all either primary or non-rs. I searched for better sources, and was unable to find evidence of significant coverage of the subject in secondary reliable sources.

Note: A redirect to Libertarian Party presidential primaries, 2016 might be considered as an option, as opposed to outright deletion.--Ddcm8991 (talk) 20:09, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
- Redirect to Libertarian Party presidential primaries, 2016. If he wins the Libertarian nomination, that will probably bring him to a level of being notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:24, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
- Mr Petersen does not conform to the foundation and primary principle of non-aggression stated in the Libertarian Party bylaws, the party platform, the Statement of Principles, and the pledge of non-aggression that all Party members must sign when they join. There is little chance that the Party delegates will nominate him as it will be largely contested. Buncoshark 15:43, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
