The subject is a deputy police chef (i.e. the person below the Police Chief) at the St Louis police department. This is not an important position or office to hold, and the individual who is in the position does not have independent notability separate from that office. Is there any encyclopedic value in having an article for the second-in-command for a police department serving less than 300,000 people? Snooganssnoogans (talk) 00:05, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Nothing notable about this guy. The only hits on search are the Wikipedia article and a couple of news articles which just relate to his position as deputy police chief. He actually almost got the police chief position, but I’m not sure that makes it encyclopedic. JayPlaysStuff (talk) 13:53, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No significant, in-depth coverage yet. Further promotion may make him notable. Neutrality^talk 22:08, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There's this, which is.... interesting, but other than that I couldn't really find many non-primary sources. AllegedlyHuman (talk) 08:22, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
