Doesn't seem notable enough. StaticGull Talk  15:36, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - virtually the only law enforcement agency between Buffalo and Rochester. Can be cleaned up, cites can be found. Bearian (talk) 18:07, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep this is clearly a notable subject and the very nomination of such a title seems like a bad faith or at the very least poor judgment nomination.Myheartinchile (talk) 19:07, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Weak delete - concerning the nominator's good faith, have a look at the article as it appeared when nominated. By now it's vastly improved, but still the sources are either what I'd call directory entries (USA cops website, Officer Down Memorial Page), not independent (Sheriffs' Association, Sheriff Office website, jail website) or not about the article's subject (New York laws). WP:N requires multiple non-trivial reliable sources independent of the subject. This article doesn't satisfy the requirement. Huon (talk) 19:54, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment - clearly it's NOT bad faith, and it was a mess, but I'm still owrking on it. Bearian (talk) 21:17, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. SGGH speak! 11:08, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Per above statements for Keep. --Mifter (talk) 01:02, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
