 * Redirect to David O. Cooke, the person for whom the term was coined and who is the overwhelming useage of it. - The Bushranger One ping only 00:46, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Buckshot06 (talk) 01:48, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Redirect to David O. Cooke. This article is mainly about him, and the title/nickname is treated in that article. Cnilep (talk) 04:28, 24 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Merge As far as I am concerned, _IF_ this section can be merged into the Director of Administration and Management (DoD), _THEN_ I can see that this page could be changed into a: REDIRECT. The catch is, of course, that I could not find a convenient location to insert this article's information. BTW, I disagree about the term "Mayor" referring only to David O. Cooke. That WAS true, it now seems to refer to the position, not only the person.  LP-mn (talk) 21:19, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
 * That would be a case of WP:PRIMARYTOPIC/WP:COMMONNAME, I believe. - The Bushranger One ping only 07:23, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

I am the person who first wrote this article, and have a relevant question: Would anyone think it inappropriate to copy and paste the text in as a new SUB-section at Director_of_Administration_and_Management_%28DoD%29? LP-mn (talk) 00:37, 5 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I'd have no issue with that and most votes here are either merge or redirect, so taking the referenced sentence and putting it there would not likely be out of line (I would remove the YouTube clip as it is not an RS source). In that case, you can create the redirect yourself to the subsection you place it in, and blank the current page with a note on the talk page as to what you've done. Maybe wait a while to see if anyone else here disagrees before moving forward, but you should be fine. Jeremy112233 ( Lettuce-jibber-jabber? ) 14:03, 5 May 2014 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
