Councilman Thomas Martin

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Councillor for a town of 27,000 people, no other claims of notability. Fails WP:POLITICIAN and WP:GNG as he lacks any significant coverage. Valenciano (talk) 08:41, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Don't see any evidence he's notable. Being a councillor in a small town is not enough.  Admittedly it's hard to Google his name, but I don't think there's anything to find that'll supply WP:GNG. --Colapeninsula (talk) 08:51, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete Article offers no evidence of notability and supplies no biographical details. (BTW what little mention of him I could find at Google News suggests that he is or was the mayor, not just a city councilman. Can't tell for sure because his city webpage does not appear to have been updated since 2001 or so! If he was mayor he's still not notable, but this casts doubt on the accuracy of the article as well.) Article created by an WP:SPA. Reminder to self: if the article is deleted, I should remove the links to it from Maywood, California, List of chemical engineers, and the dab page Thomas Martin. --MelanieN (talk) 15:00, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
