 * Keep I find lots of sources by a simple Gnews search on top of all the sources already present; subject meets WP:BASIC. Did nom do any part of BEFORE? Sam Sailor Talk! 02:02, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Thanks, Sam Sailor, for belittling me. I am knew to Wikipedia. Yes, I did look into the deletion criteria. Per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Common_outcomes#Politicians, I thought this entry did NOT meet the criteria. This guy isn't at the national level and the sources listed, while credible, do nothing to make this entry anymore valid. Mr. Hollingsworth was a state-level employee and prior to that a city-level employee - both of which are not notable. WikiWatcher987 (talk) 19:10, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
 * We were all newbies once, so try not to take a little criticism too personally, even if it may seem pointy to you . . . . Most of us wiki veterans are used to talking to each other in wiki jargon short-hand with links to policies and guidelines, and, yes, that can be arcane and a little obnoxious at times.  Even though the article subject does not satisfy the specific criteria for politicians, he does satisfy the criteria under the general notability guidelines per WP:GNG.  Many subject areas have specific notability guidelines (SNGs), but all of them are back-stopped by GNG.  For future reference, you may want to familiarize yourself with the Guide to deletion; there's a lot of good advice and conventional wisdom to be found there.  If you have any questions, feel free to ping me or ask on my user talk page.  Cheers.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 09:59, 5 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep - Clearly notable public figure with significant coverage in multiple independent, reliable sources per WP:GNG. Thanks for  for doing the basic homework outline above.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 09:51, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
