WP:BLP of the mayor of a town with a population of less than one thousand people. As always, every mayor of everywhere does not get an automatic inclusion freebie just for existing as a mayor -- to qualify as notable, a mayor has to have enough reliable source coverage about him in real media to enable us to write something genuinely substantive about him and his political career. But three of the four references here are primary sources that do absolutely nothing to establish a person's notability at all -- a press release from his alma mater, the staff directory of his own employer and the statewide database of all teacher salaries in Pennsylvania -- and the fourth is just a raw table of election results. These are not the kind of sources it takes to make a smalltown mayor notable just for being a mayor. Bearcat ( talk) 23:33, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

- Delete Fails general notability and notability for politicians. Google search is not turning up reliable sources on him either. PohranicniStraze ( talk) 04:22, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Doesn't look like he's done anything really notable and most of the sources do not help establish notability. I usually vote Keep for mayors but not when it is veritably a small town. ~ EDDY ( talk/ contribs)~ 16:09, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
