Although briefly an elected local official, Mike Conway does not meet the notability criteria. I could find no significant coverage of him in published secondary sources; the only significant detail gleaned from a google search of his name is the fact that he died in 2016. Further, no details have been added to the body of this article (aside from reference tweaks) since its creation in 2009. Drdpw (talk) 06:37, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Only one (possible) instance of significant coverage in an independent, reliable source found in my before (his obituary in the Glendora City News). To pass WP:BASIC we need two such references in different sources. FOARP (talk) 08:36, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Pretty clear WP:NPOL fail with no indication of passing WP:GNG. Best, GPL93 (talk) 12:59, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom unless other sources can be found. Fifthavenuebrands (talk) 13:04, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Glendora CA is not large enough to guarantee all of its mayors an automatic inclusion freebie just for existing as mayors — but this features neither the depth of substance nor the volume of sourcing required to actually get him over WP:NPOL #2. Making a mayor notable enough for a Wikipedia article requires the ability to write and source a quality article about his political career, not just the ability to offer primary sourced technical verification of the beginning and end dates of his term in office.
