Poorly sourced WP:AUTOBIO (creator = "Jeremy D Williams") of a person notable only as the former mayor of a town that is not large enough to confer an automatic presumption of notability on its mayors. A smalltown mayor can sometimes still clear the bar if he can be reliably sourced well enough to deem him a special notability case over and above most other smalltown mayors, but is not automatically entitled to have a Wikipedia article just because he exists -- but the sourcing here just comprises a mix of primary sources and local reporting in the local community pennysaver, and even most of the latter just quotes him giving soundbite in articles that aren't about him. This is not the type or depth of coverage it takes to make a smalltown mayor more notable than the norm. Bearcat ( talk) 23:20, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
