Smalltown mayor (pop 10K) who doesn't get past WP:NPOL on that basis, and isn't well-sourced enough to get past WP:GNG either. The history here is that the original deletion discussion took place at a time when the only substantive claim of notability was his unsuccessful candidacy in a federal election, so it was deleted on that basis and then later recreated when he was elected to the mayoralty — so it doesn't qualify for speedy as a recreation of deleted content, but the claim of notability and the volume of sourcing here still aren't actually sufficient to qualify him for inclusion in Wikipedia.

 * No, it wouldn't qualify for G7. I'm not the original author (only the current revision is in any way "my" work) and it's been edited extensively by other people (a condition of G7 is that the original author is also the only substantive author, which I'm not.)
