Pat Hynes

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Another councillor (so not passing WP:POLITICIAN) where a few interesting things exist to say about them, but not sufficient to pass WP:GNG. Iveagh Gardens (talk) 16:53, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete: I can't find a significant coverage of any find on him, so obviously not notable enough for an article. ww2censor (talk) 12:08, 14 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. As always, county councillors are not automatically notable just because they exist. The notability bar for a politician at the local levels of office is not "he exists as a political officeholder", but "he can be extremely well-sourced as being a political officeholder of much more than just local significance". But the only "reference" here is a book self-published by his own county's local historical society, and even it's just sitting there as a contextless list item without being used to actually footnote any of the actual body content for the purposes of verifying how much it does or doesn't actually say about Pat Hynes. Just because he gets mentioned in a book is not automatically enough per se, if we're unable to verify the extent to which he is or isn't a key subject of said book.

 * Comment - equivalent to a county executive, he is of unclear notability. Bearian (talk) 17:59, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
