Surely, district attorneys in individual counties of US states are not inherently notable. Surely. I mean, come on. Hi DrNick ! 02:12, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete, not notable, should be about notable ones, wp is not indiscriminate information.--Grandmaster Huon (talk) 02:27, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Keep -- There's no need to answer nom's Q about district attorneys to argue that this one is notable. The article is extensively sourced with many statewide papers and three national sources: two from AP and one from WaPo. It's hard to imagine a good reason or any reason at all why this ought to be deleted. Central and Adams (talk) 08:07, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep, meets GNG due to various coverage beyond the normal scope of job duties, including petitions to have subject investigated by a grand jury. Sources already linked in article. &mdash;siro&chi;o 10:12, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep: The nom is right that district attorneys in individual counties of US states aren't inherently notable, but in this case the subject has the coverage to meet GNG. Sources are already in the article. User:Let'srun 18:46, 29 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep: There is enough WP:RS coverage of Prater to meet WP:GNG or WP:NPOL (as a major local politician). Plus, Prater was the DA of Oklahoma County (the largest county in the state) for over a decade. The OK County DA handles things like corruption prosecutions and investigations since the capitol is in the county. It's the most prominent DA position in the state and he held it for a decade. He investigated Terry O'Donnell (politician) during his corruption scandal and is a major voice in Oklahoma's criminal justice debates. TulsaPoliticsFan (talk) 22:43, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
