One-sentence stub WP:BLP, relying exclusively on a single primary source with not a scrap of reliable source coverage in sight, of a person with no strong claim to passing WP:NPOL. The mayoralty of this particular city is a purely ceremonial position which rotates internally among city councillors, rather than a directly elected executive position, and Wikipedia does not extend an automatic presumption of notability to that type of mayor — rather, her chance of qualifying for an article on here rests entirely on being able to pass WP:GNG by virtue of a significant volume of reliable sourcing, and that's lacking.

 * Userfy? This is a brand-new article by what is possibly a brand-new WP contributor. If the originator is willing to take it back until more resources are found and it can be un-stubbed, I think that would be best. That said, I did research and was able to find some not terribly significant local news articles (Ventura Star), but nothing in the Los Angeles Times, which would demonstrate greater impact. It may not be possible for this to reach notability, but I'd really like to hear from User_talk:Shaffercds to hear what he/she had in mind LaMona (talk) 22:59, 21 November 2014 (UTC).
 * Delete I doubt if any amount of rewriting is going to make this subject notable. She is a member of the non-notable Ventura City Council and as such got a little newspaper coverage when she was elected. She is also described as a freelance writer; as such she has co-written one non-notable book. I think it would be unkind to encourage the author to rewrite the article, only to have it rejected once again because the subject simply doesn't meet any of our criteria for inclusion (WP:BIO, WP:POLITICIAN or WP:AUTHOR). --MelanieN (talk) 04:10, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Lacks the significant independent coverage required to meet the GNG and doesn't appear to meet any subject notability criteria.131.118.229.17 (talk) 21:57, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
