Bob McMahon (politician)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Mayor of city of about 5k. Fails to meet WP:POLITICIAN or WP:BIO requirements. red dogsix (talk) 20:38, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG and WP:NPOLITICIAN. Joseph2302 (talk) 21:15, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Mayors of places this size can clear the inclusion bar if their articles can be substantively written and sourced, but they do not get an automatic inclusion freebie just because they exist. Most of the sourcing here, further, is to invalid primary sources which cannot confer notability at all — and the few properly reliable sources are not sufficient in number, or sufficiently extralocal in scope, to claim a WP:GNG pass in lieu of NPOL. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 21:47, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
