Being elected to a local office is not enough to pass the notability guidelines for politicians. Further, not enough coverage in the media to pass general notability guidelines. Vigyani talkਯੋਗਦਾਨ 06:13, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep, being mayor of a city with a population of over a million is enough for notability (there is no clear-cut rule here, arguably mayors of towns with 10,000-50,000 inhabitants would automatically pass for notability, but with over one million it should be quite clear that there is sufficent notability). --Soman (talk) 06:28, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Could you point me to any policy which says so ? -- Vigyani talkਯੋਗਦਾਨ 12:49, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Common sense. As I commented above there is no fixed rule on when a mayor becomes notable by default, but being mayor of a town with 1 million inhabitants is definately enough. --Soman (talk) 14:33, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
 * WP:POLOUTCOMES clarifies that as a rule, mayors of cities are indeed quite commonly kept, as long as their articles are properly sourced and more substantive than just "So-and-so is the mayor of such-and-such, the end." Policy doesn't explicitly apply a strict population cutoff — an unofficial 50K rule holds sway with a lot of people, but even the mayor of a much smaller city than 50K can clear the bar if that city's politics gets more media attention than normal (e.g. by virtue of being the capital city of a country or province or state or territory), and the mayor of a much bigger city than 50K can fail to clear the bar if the quality of referencing is for the birds. But for all intents and purposes, a well-sourced article about a mayor of a city with a population of over one million is almost certain to be kept in very nearly all cases.

 * Abhilasha Gupta is mayor of Allahabad, a metropolitan city of India, this is enough for notability. An other notable point is, she is wife of Industrialist, MP, MLA, Nand Gopal Gupta alias Nandi. Just search on Google , Abhilash Gupta Mayor in english as well as Hindi... You will find lots of news links. OKKkkk --Jeeteshvaishya (talk) 12:42, 1 July 2014 (UTC)--Jeeteshvaishya (talk) 12:42, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
 * :Notability is not inherited i.e. being related to a notable person does not add anything to your own notability. Please point me to a policy which says that being mayor of a big city is notable. I did google search and could not find sufficient material. -- Vigyani talkਯੋਗਦਾਨ 12:49, 1 July 2014 (UTC)


 * If Mayor is not a notable, then i think Sunil Prabhu's page should be deleted, bcoz he is also a mayor. --Jeeteshvaishya (talk) 13:05, 1 July 2014 (UTC)


 * i dont understand ir, how could u not get sufficient material on Google abt Abhilash.--Jeeteshvaishya (talk) 13:07, 1 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Now i come to know her full name. Her full name is Abhilasha Gupta Nandi अभिलाषा गुप्ता नंदी . just google by this name. may u find sufficient sources. --Jeeteshvaishya (talk) 13:10, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi Jeeteshvaishya, yes being elected to a local office is not notable. If you think that Sunil Prabhu fails WP:GNG, you can nominate it for deletion. I could only find 2-3 references, which only discuss that she was elected Mayor. That is not enough. And one more thing, in a deletion discussion, it is not good to say ki "please find sources on google etc". It create mis communication. Two different editors could be seeing different search results on google search. Best practice is to cite the sources. If u think that there are sufficient sources. Please list those here, so that other editors can have a look at those before voting. -- Vigyani talkਯੋਗਦਾਨ 13:18, 1 July 2014 (UTC)


 * I have not interacted on Wikipedia before today. A local people better tell u that a person is famous or not. Like Sunil Prabhu, His position of mayor, may not be notable at ur point of view, bt most of Mumbaikar knws him. Let leave.

I m going to paste links which i have find on google. okay... wait.let me collect thos links --Jeeteshvaishya (talk) 13:40, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Some expansion and referencing improvements arguably still needed here, but a city of over 1 million people certainly confers notability on its mayors. Keep and flag for improvement. Bearcat (talk) 23:35, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

As of 2011 Census, the population of the Allahabad city was 1,117,094 and the metro population was 1,216,719. --Jeeteshvaishya (talk) 09:14, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Keep We keep all the mayors of Detroit, and that city has only about 700,000 people. Clearly we should keep the mayors of this city.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:59, 3 July 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep - Elected mayor of a city of 1.1 million people is sufficient for a pass of the SNG high bar for politicians. Carrite (talk) 16:21, 6 July 2014 (UTC)
