 * Note There is active disruption going on where the article is being redirected to Scott Speicher, which is not a plausible redirect to the subject of that article. With that said, delete, as subject is not a real known politician in Milwaukee politics as-is.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 17:52, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * It was a redirect to Scott Speicher since 2006 before being repurposed to the current page a few days ago. It's a plausible redirect because Speicher is pronounced Spiker so someone only hearing the name may guess at that spelling. Central and Adams (talk) 18:50, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I appreciate the clarification on the page history, did not see that. I would support restoring the redirect in this case.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 19:32, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I am the one that created the page, I agree with the deletion or restoration of redirect and I would like to apologize that i was edit warring, I'm new to this and this was the first page I made and wanted to keep it as a trophy, again i agree in the deletion of this page, Good day.

 * Restore redirect, but no prejudice against recreation if someone can write something more substantial and better-sourced. Milwaukee is a large and important enough city that its city councillors potentially could have sufficient media coverage to meet NPOL #2 — but an article about a city councillor still has to be more substantive and better sourced than this before it can actually be kept. At the local level, city councillors aren't all "inherently" notable just because they exist, and need to have content about their political impact — specific things they did, specific projects they spearheaded, specific effects their time in office had on the development of the city, and on and so forth. I don't know nearly enough about Milwaukee's local politics to know whether that's possible here or not, so I'm willing to reconsider if somebody can expand the article, but this isn't sufficient as written.

 * Restore redirect -- I wanted to save this article but sadly there are literally no sources and city councilmembers don't satisfy WP:NPOL automatically. Central and Adams (talk) 19:18, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
