Jeff Henry

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Does not appear to meet WP:GNG, no coverage beyond mere mention in secondary sources independent of the subject. Note that WP:POLITICIAN does not automatically consider politicians below the province level to be notable. signed, Rosguill talk 04:05, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Weak Delete or Redirect to Ontario municipal elections, 2018 Yeah, unfortunately, municipal politicians, unless you are part of the city council in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, etc. would probably not qualify for WP:NPOL. Running into a similar problem with an Edmonton City Council member in draftspace. Bkissin (talk) 14:27, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia does not hand an automatic inclusion freebie to every city councillor in every city — as Bkissin correctly notes, city councillors are presumed to pass WP:NPOL #2 only if they serve in internationally prominent global cities on the order of Toronto or Ottawa or Montreal, and outside that narrow range of cities a city councillor is considered notable only if he or she can be referenced to enough reliable source coverage, expanding beyond the purely local and routine level of coverage that every city councillor in every city could always show, to mark him or her out as a special case. This, however, shows nothing of the sort — there are just four footnotes here, of which one is his own primary source profile on a directly affiliated website, and the other three are comprehensive coverage of everybody involved in the municipal elections he's been involved in, not suggesting any reason whatsoever why Jeff Henry could be considered more notable than Melissa Durrell or Scott Wilmer or Angela Vieth or Diane Freeman. This is not how you make a city councillor in a midsize city notable enough. Bearcat (talk) 15:36, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Waterloo City Council, where he is mentioned. Fails WP:NPOL, but can be a redirect. Patar knight - chat/contributions 13:35, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
