Biographical article of a small-town mayor that clearly fails WP:POLITICIAN. Only sources are a local history book and the local newspaper. Deproded for unknown reasons. Rusf10 (talk) 02:57, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete I proded this almost a week ago as I sorted through non-notable mayor stubs. I've proded very few of the articles I've nominated for deletion, but this mayor was so non-noteworthy after a before sketch I didn't think anyone would have a problem with it. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NPOL. SportingFlyer  talk  04:32, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
 * What you didn't count on is a particular editor who thinks all biographies deserve inclusion. He feels its his right to deprod articles without explanation.--Rusf10 (talk) 07:06, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment I'd also note there are a few other mayors of this town who probably fail WP:GNG. SportingFlyer  talk  04:39, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
 * - One step ahead of you, I nominated several of them. I won't like thme all here, just check the delsort. It seems an editor felt like creating an article for every mayor his town has ever had.--Rusf10 (talk) 07:06, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom and SportingFlyer. The sourcing does not meet a level necessary to satisfy WP:GNG. Unclear rationale for deprodding. Reyk YO! 19:12, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. Ashland KY is not large enough to hand all of its mayors an automatic free pass over WP:NPOL #2 just for existing, but this is sourced nowhere near well enough to actually get him over the bar. Bearcat (talk) 19:04, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
