Kept at AfD in 2005, but we've since developed WP:NPOL and WP:GNG which this woman fails. Cary, North Carolina is certainly not a big enough town to grant a presumption of notability to council members, and there aren't enough non-local sources about this woman to justify keeping the article under GNG. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 07:39, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete city council members in cities the size of Cary are very rarely notable and nothing suggests that Dorrel is an exception to that rule. We kept way too many things back in the 00s.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:52, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete. City councillors receive an automatic presumption of notability only if they serve in major, internationally famous global cities on the order of New York City, Chicago, Toronto or London — outside of that narrow range of cities, city councillors are deemed notable only if they can be reliably sourced well enough to qualify as special cases of significantly greater and more nationalized notability than most other city councillors in non-global cities But this is referenced to just two glancing namecheck of her existences in local media pieces that aren't about her to any non-trivial degree, which is not the type or volume of sourcing it takes.
