 * Delete Local politician with no "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article". Apart from the official government listing there isn't much coverage to establish notability. Fails WP:GNG and of course, WP:POLITICIAN.

 * Keep Local politician has received significant and ongoing coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. ~ Quacks Like a Duck (talk) 11:33, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. Every single person who holds office at the county level always gets purely local media coverage in their own local media — so that coverage is not enough to make a county councillor notable all by itself, because if that were all it took then there would never be any such thing as a non-notable county councillor anymore. But county councillors, in reality, are not accepted as automatically notable just because they exist — to actually get a county councillor into Wikipedia just for being a county councillor per se, the coverage has to nationalize to a degree that marks him out as plainly more notable than most other county councillors in most other counties. But apart from the government primary sources that don't assist notability at all, there isn't a single media citation here that isn't to Frederick's own local newspaper, which is not enough to demonstrate that he's of any wider interest beyond the purely local.
