Unsourced BLP since 2006. Notability unclear; would welcome input from those more familiar with the subject. I am neutral. Black Kite 16:47, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete per BLP - has been unsourced for months with no interest shown in sourcing it. Kevin (talk) 03:09, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep this is a stub of a current mexican politician. Yes it has been unsourced for long time but that shouldnt be a reason for deleting it thats a reason for expandig it and for inviting others to contribute not for deleting. Yes there are plenty of news hits because she has served as mayor in one of mexico city most importants boroughs and that is not an incedent... thats history...but still being famous just for one incident (i.e. the  pilot who recently landed in front of nyc)is not a reason for deleiting the article.   Anyway if most wikipedians vote for deleiting go ahead and do it against wikipedias values.  I have thought that this is all about contributing and creating a free enciclopedia by expanding articles of verifyalbe events and people not about deleting articles.  chers.

 * Comment Given the size of the federal District,(22 million people) she'd count essentially as a state legislator, and would therefore be notable. Viewed as a city council, members of councils of cities that size would also be notable. Surely there an be no problem verify the basic fact of her membership?  Abogarp, you wrote the article. and you have written a great many such. Currently,you're  doing 2009 elections with  the same lack of documentation. You must have had a source at the time--you must have a source at hand now. You are my far the best person to do the job--why not simply add it. I suppose its a Mexico City newspaper, which would be a good source. Fix the past problems, and do the present ones right. if not you, who do you think should do the job.?  There are quite a number of these articles in a similar state,  and you could solve a significant problem. It is basically your responsibility. You've put a great deal of work into this project. Do a little more, and make them stay. DGG (talk) 00:25, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Comment I just added references to this article- it wasn't that hard. Being totally clueless about Mexican politics and not understanding Spanish; I'm neutral in this debate.  Them  From  Space  03:09, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep as notable-enough local legislator in a major state/city legislature. Rd232 talk 13:58, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Notability not established as per WP:POLITICIAN. This is a tricky one but, firstly, a Mexican Jefe Delegacional is more like the senior officer of a district rather than a Borough Mayor (like Marty Markowitz, for example), and is less notable simply because there are many more of them (16, in fact) and exist for ease of administration. Indeed, the article Boroughs of the Mexican Federal District, states that the boroughs ...do not have regulatory powers and are not fully autonomous in their internal administration. Hence, I would argue that the subject is currently a third-level public official. Eddie.willers (talk) 16:14, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes those are just administrative positions. But I voted keep on the basis of her election as "diputado" and serving on 4 city committees, 1 as President. Rd232 talk 18:24, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Brooklyn isn't fully autonomous either; and for that matter, neither is NYC. That's not the standard. Question: how many people does she represent? --that's a possibly reasonable comparison.. DGG (talk) 05:17, 19 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Obvious keep. Her position seems equivalent to people on this list: Membership of the New York City Council as the Mexican Federal Districts encompasses all of Mexico City. The state the article is is similar to many on that list as well (e.g. Domenic M. Recchia, Jr.). --Reinoutr (talk) 10:58, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
