Unsourced Biography of a Living Person of a non-notable regional politician. Carrite (talk) 20:15, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Franklin crops up in routine news coverage about elections and some of his political achievements e.g. [1], [2], but nothing biographical or substantial enough to verify the information in this short stub. Sionk (talk) 21:17, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - just because he's a politician doesn't mean he's notable. Many politician pages here have the same issue. WP:NOTINHERITED. CyanGardevoir ^{(used EDIT!)} 21:59, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete He's not even a real politician - just an elected member of the local transit board. Nothing in the article suggests notability. --MelanieN (talk) 23:47, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - for all of the above. Jrcrin001 (talk) 07:07, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Not even close to passing any notability tests. --76.189.114.163 (talk) 16:05, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Agreed with arguments on GNG and notability. Not even a true 'politician' by most standards. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 01:19, 4 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
