Munyankindi Francois

Was deprodded with the following rationale: "contest WP:PROD deletion - mayor of cities or districts with a population of 300000+ usually turn out to be notable, so this shouldn't be deleted without discussion."

However, this particular mayor does not appear to pass WP:GNG or WP:BIO, and he certainly doesn't pass WP:NPOL. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 19:45, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Just in case there happens to be anyone commenting here who believes in looking for sources before giving an opinion I note that the name order in the article title is reversed. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 22:13, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note to AfD closer: The page under discussion has been moved to Francois Munyankindi (different name order). EdJohnston (talk) 03:17, 30 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete ~~To correct the de-prodding: I think he was the mayor of a city with a population of 30,000 people (source).~~ Zero hits in Newsbank or LexisNexis searches. The sources appear to be: The New Times source cited, a self-published book about soy, this Africa Intelligence piece, and there are 8 other hits in the New Times, but only two can be said to be substantive content about Francois Munyankindi (note: most of those sources identify him as district mayor. But not all do--noticably so, but would not be surprised if UNHABITAT source I used above is wrong). Will be following discussion and can change, but based on these sources, I think delete is appropriate. ~~Final: Even if we ascertain that he was the district mayor, the sources found do not pass GNG for me (nor NPOL).~~ Add: Appears most likely he is district mayor, but that still doesn't pass GNG or NPOL.
