Thomas Jackson (police chief)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Blatant violation of WP:BLP. It seems like an almost direct copy of the one reference given. There is no evidence of notability and no in-line citations. Also there has been no attempts to improve the article since it was tagged in May 2010. I'm struggling to see such a purpose for the article. --  Lil_ ℧ niquℇ № 1  [talk]  13:21, 8 January 2011 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Delete as extremely non-notable. One of a series of articles created by someone who wanted to do biographies of the celebrities in the town of Ferguson, Missouri. There's another one for the Mayor and another one for the police department, and as nominator points out, there seems to be a case of duplicating the city's webpage over here.  Never heard of Ferguson, Missouri?  Neither had I, but it's less than 25,000 folks, so there's nothing inherently notable about the police chief or mayor, and Chief Jackson doesn't pass WP:PEOPLE.
