Non-notable mayor for a small town. Fails WP:GNG as not otherwise notable from his mayoral position, WP:NPOL, and Poloutcomes. SportingFlyer talk 22:39, 6 May 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Delete. Mayors of small towns don't get an automatic free pass over WP:NPOL #2 just for existing — but this just cites a small smattering of the purely routine local coverage that every mayor of everywhere would always be simply expected to have, which is not enough to make him special.

  • Delete Concur with Bearcat and SportingFlyer. Person does not meet NPOL or GNG. Some entries in local history texts, but that's it. This is just a small city, an the position is not in and of itself significant. I took a look at List of mayors of Murray, Utah, and the mayors preceding this one also fail GNG and NPOL. They too need to be AfD'd. I didn't look past this mayor. @ Stundra: created that list and the first four mayors on the list (and maybe all of them?). He's not been very active of late, but he did make an edit recently on May 2nd. Hopefully he'll chime in here. -- Hammersoft ( talk) 16:21, 10 May 2018 (UTC) reply
