Joe Mavrinac

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Smalltown mayor (pop 8K) who doesn't get past WP:NPOL for the role, and isn't well-sourced enough to get past WP:GNG either. In fact, the dates of his term as mayor are sourced only to "Joe Mavrinac (Mayor of Kirkland Lake 1980-1997)" as the byline on a review quote on the promotional website of a non-notable book that isn't about him, and his unsuccessful runs for provincial and federal office are sourced to an essay on "political life among the Croatian Canadians" which mentions his name in passing but isn't particularly about him either. This is not "substantive coverage in reliable sources", needless to say. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 04:36, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
