    • Comment: I respect your right to request a vote on deletion, but I don't understand your reason for doing it and what the conspiracy cruft refers to. Please clarify your reasons and make clear...Also, since you called the vote much has been added and cited, so you should reconsider and delete your call for deletion as the initiator of this vote.WikiWoo 00:18, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep, no less notable than anyone else in Category:Ontario mayors. BoojiBoy 01:33, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Definately notable and encyclopedic. Mystache 01:38, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as per BoojiBoy. Dionyseus 03:11, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per BoojiBoy. --David Mestel(Talk) 06:42, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, Peel isn't huge, he's only the head of a council rather than a mayor and his other positions are less important. He's roughly the equivalent of a county supervisor of a medium-sized county, I would say. Hopefully, county supervisors don't have articles. -- Kjkolb 11:58, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment Um... he's the head of a council of a Regional Municipality, and one that has 988,000 people in it. BoojiBoy 14:15, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment: I am aware of that. Can you be more specific? -- Kjkolb 01:51, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • Comment Common now KJ Kolb... a Kolb voting to delete an article about a famous Kolb???WikiWoo 02:52, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per violation of WP:V. How old is this article? How long has it not been updated with sources? The answers to both this question do does not bode well for the survivability of this article. Captainktainer * Talk 13:00, 17 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment: I believe the issue you raised was resolved by the cites and updates added. Please remove your vote for deletingWikiWoo 02:48, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I don't think people at his level meet notability standards. --Aguerriero (talk) 15:13, 18 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment This is a very accomplished person. If a person like this is not noteworthy, few others are. The fact he may have been ignored by the popular press and remained low key all these years does not make him less notworthy. People should be remembered for the value of the accomplishements and not paprazzi press and scandal publicity. Good long lasting public people like this deserve recognition too.WikiWoo 02:48, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per Aguerriero. Stifle (talk) 14:37, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • KEEP Very notable and controversial public figure in Peel Region since before Peel was created. More notable than most politicians since he has been around for well over 30 years and helped shape the current landscape of Mississauga, Brampton, and Caledon from his base in Caledon. Peel is huge with over One Million People and one of the top five Census Boundaries in all Canada.WikiWoo 21:53, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment Assuming all of this is true, sources need to be provided. There are no sources. Captainktainer * Talk 22:05, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • Comment It's all in the article and under Peel for population and his time involved from before Peel was created. He starts out as a farmer, becomes a councillor, then mayor and then become the Big Cheese Chair of the whole ball of wax and now for five terms in a row. A huge accomplishment for anyone. This guy's bigger than Bill Clinton, who came and went in half the time. What else is it that you need sources for? I'll see what I can do for you. WikiWoo 22:52, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Considerable new info added with cites and links to other pages. This is good material. WikiWoo 23:52, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
