 * Keep as I see it, this passes WP:NPOL– " A politician who has received "significant press coverage" has been written about, in depth, independently in multiple news feature articles, by journalists." There's two features from different publications, I just added a national source. The at-large councilmembers in Philly represent 1.5M people, which seems significant.  This councilmember is the youngest Black woman to have been elected to city council, which also seems notable.  The article's got 15 secondary sources so far. Narsk (talk) 02:47, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep both per WP:NPOL, because she "has been written about, in depth, independently in multiple news feature articles, by journalists," and per WP:BASIC, because If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability, e.g. 1, 2, 3. Her work has also been covered by CNN and the Associated Press. Beccaynr (talk) 16:03, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Most of the coverage demonstrated by appears sufficient for a city councilwoman of an arguably major city like Philadelphia. Egsan Bacon (talk) 19:13, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
