Joseph Wiszowaty

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Village Trustee and failed mayoral candidate for small village, does not meet WP:NPOL. After removing material that was not properly cited with RS, there is not much left to this article and searching, as expected, does not find much else - just a little local coverage.

DO NOT DELETE!!! Wiszowaty was the youngest elected official in the State of Illinois in 1989, proposed the Chicago Bears Stadium and remains active in the community and south suburbs. History must be recorded and addressed and not "deleted". You should expand your search. User:Wiszo8
 * Delete. Serving a term as a member of a municipal board of trustees is not sufficient for notability, even with also obtaining a marriage license. Jack N. Stock (talk) 02:35, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:N and WP:POLITICIAN.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:18, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete WP:N failure, and like the evergreen Peotone airport proposal now, Bears stadium proposals were literally a dime a dozen by many Chicagoland politicians until Soldier Field was re-constructed.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 06:23, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete fails notability guidelines. Lepricavark (talk) 02:58, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Zero claim to notability. Pretty obvious when one of the few things we can actually say is "Wiszowaty obtained a marriage license in 2002" AusLondonder (talk) 23:19, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. Holding municipal office in a small town is not an automatic WP:NPOL pass in and of itself, and Wikipedia's inclusion criteria do not include any special dispensation just for being the youngest holder of an otherwise non-notable office. There's also a conflict of interest here, as the article was created by a user named "Wiszo8". And if a person is so poorly sourceable that you have to add "got married" just to get an article up to three sources, then WP:GNG is not being satisfied either.
