John C. Bartlett Jr.

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Biography of a county councillor, not properly referenced as clearing our notability standards for politicians at the local level of office. This is essentially written like a thinly veiled rewrite of his "meet your councillor" blurb on the council's own self-published website, rather than like an actual encyclopedia article, and is referenced to just one news article in a small community hyperlocal and the internal meeting minutes of a directly affiliated board of directors. But every county councillor in every county always gets some coverage in the local media, so one piece of local coverage is not enough to get a county councillor over the bar all by itself, and the other reference is a primary source that does not count as support for notability at all.
