 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A mayor of a small town, in this case with less than 12,000 people, is only notable if he is notable for something other than being a mayor, per WP:POLOUTCOMES. The only sources are a primary source, directly from the city's website, and a local news article detailing his salary. Delete. Mr.Bob.298 (talk) 00:01, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete. City is not large enough to give him automatic inclusion rights under WP:NPOL, and the sourcing is not strong enough to get him onto the WP:GNG bypass. Bearcat (talk) 15:53, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
