A local city commissioner is just not notable, IMHO. But I'll AFD this instead of CSD to give a chance for me to be proved wrong. TexasAndroid (talk) 14:42, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. I added some references, both from his time as a city commissioner and from his days as a student politician. I think that notability has been established. -- Eastmain (talk) 16:16, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Coverage in RS is not deep enough to warrant an article. Were Tallahassee a larger city, I would argue inherent notability. But it does not cross the threshold. The mayor would have inherent notability, but a council member for a city this size would need to be more extraordinary to be notable. The references added by Eastman are not sufficiently non-trivial. (Betcha- this closes as no consensus because enough people won't agree to delete.)   Dloh  cierekim  20:15, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

 * weak Keep Tallahasee is a city of 159,012, and we've usually considered that in the range where the city councilmen might be notable. DGG (talk) 03:33, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep - sources establish notability the usual way. Published biography already exists, reliable if not third party, so no concerns about ability to write. No reason to override the usual standards here. Wily D  14:15, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep reliable and verifiable sources establish notability. Alansohn (talk) 20:39, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
