Local politician, elected to a county board for which there is no article yet; no indication of notability per WP:POLITICIAN, and no significant coverage online from WP:Reliable sources. Military record is commendable, but doesn't meet WP:MILPEOPLE. Proposed deletion contested by another editor with a new account. Norvoid ( talk) 16:51, 8 December 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Delete fails WP:NOTEBLP for lack of significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. There is a lack of in depth coverage. As the nominator noted, he also fails WP:POLITICIAN and WP:MILPEOPLE. -- Bejnar ( talk) 03:24, 9 December 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. County board members can get over WP:NPOL #3 if they're sourced well enough to satisfy WP:GNG, but it's not a level of office that confers an automatic presumption of notability just because the board member exists. But the sourcing here is far too dependent on primary and unreliable sources, with not nearly enough reliable source coverage shown to get over GNG, and nothing else here constitutes an automatic inclusion freebie either.
