Neither serving as mayor of Hoboken, nor getting arrested on corruption charges make a person notable John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:36, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep the article meets the general notability guideline. I am not sure what the population size has to do with notability. This should be administratively closed. The nominator seems to have some grudge against the city and nominated 8 mayor articles. The coverage in the Bergen Record, The New York Times, and the Jersey Journal, and the multi-page biography in The Next Generation: Young Elected Officials and Their Impact, speaks for itself. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 19:55, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep - nominator is mistaking concerning deletion reasoning. clearly passes WP:GNG.--BabbaQ (talk) 22:57, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - clearly notable as mayor. Population of city is not a factor in Wikipedia articles for mayor. It's not in the guidelines. Comes under local politicianws in that mayors are not mentioned. Billy Hathorn (talk) 17:14, 14 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep As a major local political leader, with ample coverage in reliable and verifiable sources of his service as mayor and corruption claims to establish notability. Despite its size, Hoboken punches far above its weight, making it a regionally important city, as evidenced here and in the article for the present mayor, Dawn Zimmer. The nominator appears to have prejudged this AfD based on the city's size and has made no mention or taken any consideration of the availability or quality of reliable and verifiable sources or of alternative solutions as explicitly required by WP:BEFORE. The additional failure to combine a series of such AfDs all based on the same rationalization raises further issues. Alansohn (talk) 02:24, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: Has enough in-depth coverage from reliable sources, so he is notable. Notability is determined by coverage, not role. Esquivalience t 13:28, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep - Actually, the nominator is incorrect, being elected mayor of Hoboken (a major American city) does make a person automatically notable. Carrite (talk) 12:42, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. Mayor of a city of 50,000 people. Just not notable enough. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:27, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * You can at least read the articles and look at the references before !voting and citing population statistics. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 18:11, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Please try to avoid telling another experienced editor how to suck eggs. -- Necrothesp (talk) 01:02, 18 February 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep per WP:BASIC. Whether or not Hoboken mayors are automatically notable as mayors of regionally significant cities, Cammarano has significant coverage from multiple, independent reliable sources. 24.151.10.165 (talk) 18:13, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
