 * current elected official representing approx. 162,000 people. page has multiple contributors and needs expansion not deletion. - User:Socalres Talk 23:36, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
 * "multiple contributors"?? ?? Your creation of the article, another editor adding references, and my adding the AFD tags are the only edits shown in the page history at this point in time. "Multiple" contributors is quite a stretch of reality. Wuh Wuz  Dat  02:05, 24 December 2010 (UTC) (sorry, forgot to sign earlier)
 * "another editor adding references"?? The "other editor" wrote more than half of the text. Please focus discussion on the whether this article falls under the Wikipedia's deletion policy. -Socalres (talk) 02:01, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Keep The article contains several references from regional papers, and more could be added. As a city council member of the eighth largest city in the United States, she easily passes WP:POLITICIAN, which grants notability to "major local political figures who have received significant press coverage.[7] Generally speaking, mayors of cities of at least regional importance are likely to meet this criterion, as are members of the main citywide government or council of a major metropolitan city." --MelanieN (talk) 15:18, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
