Mease

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable author of a book published by a vanity press. No references cited. Since his book is the only thing that seems to warrant this article, no reviews or any evidence of notability has been given. Deproded by author without explanation. eaolson 03:35, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I would support deletion of this article because of the lack of sources. But might he be notable for being a former mayor of Selinsgrove, Pennsylvania, assuming that this statement has the requisite sources? Computer not responding 04:00, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Under WP:BIO state legislators and up are eligible. Many people think around 100,000 is a good city population for mayors to start becoming notable, but there isn't consensus for this. --Dhartung | Talk 05:32, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Hmm… Selinsgrove has only 5,383 residents as of Census 2000, so no joy. Computer not responding 05:39, 3 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete per above, but maybe reformat article to be more about mayor and less about book. Anti  V  Man  04:39, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, fails WP:BIO. --Dhartung | Talk 05:32, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. No evidence of notability from third-party sources. Mease's book is self-published. The article is basically a slight rework of his book's listing at Amazon. A Google search shows Mease in a city council dispute over a tax levy. • Gene93k 08:09, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. per Gene93k. -Jmh123 22:14, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
