Nice resume, but as mayor of a city of just 1,000 people I don't think he passes WP:NPOL. The substantive sources are about Von Ormy, Texas not Martinez de Vara himself. Reywas92^Talk 03:40, 23 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, Delete. I edited this page 2+ years ago, and put it on my watchlist. As I expected, nothing has been added to improve Notability. – S. Rich (talk) 04:13, 23 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as not meeting WP:GNG or any specific notability criterion such as WP:NPOL. The sources appear to be routine election coverage, mentions in articles where the city itself is the primary topic, and information about awards that do not meet the threshold for inclusion. --Kinu ^t/_c 21:47, 23 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Von Ormy TX is nowhere near large enough to confer an automatic presumption of notability on its mayors just because they exist — but this article is referenced about 50 per cent to primary and unreliable sources that aren't support for notability at all and about 50 per cent to a small smattering of routine local coverage in the local media, which isn't even remotely close to enough to make him more special than other smalltown mayors who don't have Wikipedia articles.
