 * Delete - as Nom says, Medina is way too small for even the mayor to satisfy NPOL. No other indication of notability. Nosebagbear (talk) 10:16, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Medina WA is not large enough to confer an automatic notability freebie on its mayors just for existing as mayors, but the sources here aren't notability-making coverage about him for the purposes of getting him over WP:NPOL #2: two are government-published primary sources that aren't support for notability at all, and the ones that are to real media are glancing namechecks of his existence as a side player in coverage of other people. As always, the notability test for smalltown mayors is not just that they've had their name mentioned in the local media twice, because no mayor of anywhere would ever fail that test at all — the notability test for smalltown mayors is the reception of significant and substantive coverage about them, which demonstrates a credible reason why they could be considered significantly more notable than most other mayors of most other places the size of Medina.

 * Delete fails WP:NPOL. Sourcing of the elected councilmember is entirely local, not showing anything why the subject should be included in an international encyclopedia (as described by Bearcat). --Enos733 (talk) 03:35, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
