 * Delete Small town mayor who fails WP:GNG and WP:NPOL. Best, GPL93 (talk) 23:34, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - Does not satisfy WP:NPOL as a local politician. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 01:22, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Once again, what we have here is not a mayor who's properly sourced as notable, but classic Billy Hathorn: the local obituary that isn't an instant GNG pass all by itself in the absence of any other substantive sourcing the way Billy always thought it was, paired with a mix of primary sourcing and tangential verification of stray facts about the subject's relatives. As usual, this is not how you reference a mayor as notable enough for a Wikipedia article, regardless of the size of the city in question. Bearcat (talk) 19:25, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete This is a city that has never passed the 15,000 mark, yet Hatorn wanted us to accept all its mayors as default notable. I have created my fair share of articles on mayors, from Mrs. Kaufusi of Provo to Jim Fouts of Warren, but both cities are well over 100,000 people, have large vibrant economies. Provo is the center of a metro area with over 300,000 people, and Kaufusi has gotten coverage as the first female mayor in the city, even more so because of the police chief being ousted for sexual harrassment of employees. While Warren is always in the shadow of its larger southern neighbor Detroit, Fouts has been a leading political figure in that city for decades, and his clash with the king, I mean executive, of Macomb County and the claimed recording the executive has produced have gotten national attention.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:35, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete Mayor of Minden, Louisiana from 1955 to 1958. Sourcing is not sufficiently nationalized to pass WP:NPOL as a mayor of a city that size. --Enos733 (talk) 02:37, 25 March 2019 (UTC)
