• Delete local coverage of a mayor is expected but does not show they are notable. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 04:22, 30 January 2018 (UTC) reply
• Keep – elected, recalled, convicted of felony, lots of press coverage; what more does GNG need? Dicklyon ( talk) 06:55, 3 February 2018 (UTC) reply
• Delete- Being mayor of Minden does not pass WP:POLITICIAN. He may possibly pass WP:CRIME, however you're going to need better sources than the Minden Press-Herald to prove that. Regardless, given that the article is likely a copyvio, let's delete and someone else can recreate if proper sourcing can be found to support the CRIME notability claim.-- Rusf10 ( talk) 07:07, 3 February 2018 (UTC) reply
