Green was mayor of American Fork, Utah. At less than 30,000 people this is not a truly significant city at the level to make the mayor default notable. The sources are not either significant enough or enough focused on Green to demonstrate he passes the general notability guidelines. John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:52, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Mayors do not get an automatic presumption of notability under WP:NPOL just for existing — a mayor's notability is conditional on passing WP:GNG, and if that's not already present then a mayor gets the benefit of the doubt only if the place is considerably larger than American Fork. But the volume of sourcing shown here is not enough to pass GNG. Bearcat (talk) 14:45, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per Bearcat and established consensus that there is not a presumption of notability for a mayor of a city under a certain population threshold, usually 50,000 if the mayor was independently elected, rather than selected by the council. - --Enos733 (talk) 22:56, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
