Delete. Mayors of small villages do not get an automatic free pass over WP:NPOL #2 just because they exist — to qualify for a Wikipedia article, he would need to be shown as the subject of enough reliable source coverage in media to be deemed significantly more notable than most other mayors of most other places this size. But apart from his own self-published website, the only other source shown here is a family genealogy, which is not evidence of notability at all. Bearcat (talk) 19:55, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete if a place is called a village, pretty much the mayor is never notable. There is no other even remote claim to notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:39, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
