The result was Delete. @ 131.118.229.17, just pointing to a policy without an explanation of reasoning is a deletion argument to avoid. czar  00:26, 2 December 2014 (UTC) reply

WP:BLP of a mayor, citing only one passing namecheck in somebody else's (deadlinked) obituary for sourcing. The municipality in question has a large enough population that its mayors might qualify for properly written and well-sourced articles, but as a relatively rural municipality on the outer edges of a metropolitan area it's not entitled to an automatic presumption of notability for all of its mayors — if this is all you can write and source about him, then it's simply not good enough to qualify him for inclusion. Delete unless the article sees significant improvement. Bearcat ( talk) 00:48, 18 November 2014 (UTC) reply
