No evidence of WP:NOTABILITY. Doesn't appear to meet WP:POLITICIAN or WP:GNG. Boleyn ( talk) 06:41, 22 May 2014 (UTC) reply

• Delete - A former County Councillor, no more notable than any other former Councillor, can't see anything else that would make him notable. Snappy ( talk) 18:47, 22 May 2014 (UTC) reply

Comment - since my comment above, he has been re-elected as a county councillor. He is still not notbale. There are 949 local councillors in the Republic of Ireland. Are they all notable now? This one isn't. Snappy ( talk) 22:37, 25 May 2014 (UTC) reply

• Whether he's a former county councillor or a current one is actually irrelevant to the question of whether he's notable enough for an article or not. If an office is sufficiently notable, then anybody who's ever held that office is a valid article topic — notability does not extend solely to current incumbents. That said, however, county council is not an office that's notable enough to get its holders past WP:POLITICIAN, and this article is not well-referenced enough to demonstrate that he's more notable than the average county councillor.
