small-town mayor, fails WP:POLITICIAN. Article is sourced to local newspaper, a local history book, and two unreliable sources. Rusf10 ( talk) 03:00, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete the only thing close to being a sign of notability is being a Republican National Convention delegate, but since each convention has a few hundred, if not thousands of delegates (the Republicans have less than the Democrats), this is not really a sign of notability.

- Delete. I found primary sources from his military service and later life. Important mentions in Ashland history as its first mayor. Missing was any WP:INDEPTH coverage of his activities. gidonb ( talk) 18:58, 17 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) 19:09, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
