List of mayors of Whitchurch–Stouffville

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Unreferenced list of entirely non-notable mayors of a small town. Whitchurch-Stouffville is not a large enough place that its mayors would get an automatic presumption of notability under WP:NPOL #2, so it's not a place where we would need to keep an unsourced list of its mayors if absolutely none of them have Wikipedia articles.

 * Comment. The two mayors who went on to be regional chairs of York Region are probably notable, even though we don't yet have an article on either one. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 19:43, 22 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Even regional chairs don't get an automatic presumption of notability just for existing, because they still fall under WP:NPOL #2 as local politicians. So while it certainly might be possible to properly establish the notability of one or more people in this list by fully demonstrating that they have sufficient coverage to pass NPOL criteria, we can't and don't take it as a given in the absence of concrete proof.

 * Merge with Whitchurch–Stouffville as fails WP:LISTN but is useful information that should be retained. Vladimir.copic (talk) 21:14, 22 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Merge to Whitchurch-Stouffville per NLIST. It's not exactly a large metropolis. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:07, 30 October 2021 (UTC)


 * Merge to Whitchurch-Stouffville the information shouldn't be removed but it doesn't warrant its own article. (JayPlaysStuff &#124; talk to me &#124; What I've been up to) 01:18, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
