 * Delete council vice presidents in the 5th largest municipality in a state are not notable. Especially when they have less than 100,000 people and are the 16th largest city in their metro area. The opening wording is overly promotional and meant to over sell the importanace of the community Joshi is in the leadership of. The city where I grew up has roughly 30,000 more people than Edison, is without question the 3rd largest in its metro region and 4th in its state, yet since its mayors are ceremonial and just in reality members of the city council, we have deleted articles on them, even when they served as mayor for roughly 20 years and on the council longer.John Pack Lambert (talk) 17:07, 4 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. Municipal council is not a role that confers an automatic free pass over WP:NPOL just because the person exists, and this is not citing enough coverage to deem Joshi as a special case of greater notability than the norm. Bearcat (talk) 15:16, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
