 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

State level bureaucrat; does not seem to have notability. Half of the article (the 2nd paragraph) is dedicated to a "controversial" decision he made but doesn't seem that controversial and seems more focused on the person he appointed rather than the subject of the article. (Note, the editor who added that paragraph has a long history of attacking Cerf). only (talk) 10:20, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Relisting for a third time as the discussion over whether the position meets WP:NPOL came very late in the AfD.

 * Do you mean POLOUTCOMES, which states "Elected and appointed political figures at the national cabinet level are generally regarded as notable, as are usually those at the major sub-national level (US state, Canadian province, Japanese prefecture, etc.) in countries where executive and/or legislative power is devolved to bodies at that level."?


 * Keep per WP:POLOUTCOMES. We have dozens of articles about state-level superintendents of instruction, chancellors, and education commissioners. I don't agree that all state cabinet members are notable, but the education chief surely would be. Bearian (talk) 21:11, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
