Found this at Prod. I think the position is possibly notable, as chief of police of a major city, but I'm not sure what the consensus will be. My own view is uncertain. DGG ( talk ) 01:40, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

• Keep Closest criteria is WP:POLITICIAN though I'm not sure a police chief fits that. In any case, he was police chief of the capital city of Hawaii for six years.. He was also on the Honolulu City Council for a short time in 2010, so that meets WP:POLITICIAN C2, "members of the main citywide government or council of a major metropolitan city." The article needs cleanup but the subject is still notable. --Crunch (talk) 02:38, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

• Delete I don't think being police chief is enough and I don't believe that being appointed to fill a vacant city council seat for a couple of months satisfies the spirit of WP:POLITICIAN. His martial arts activities also fail to pass WP:MANOTE. Astudent0 (talk) 17:34, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
• Delete It seems to boil down to whether or not you think a police chief is automatically notable since I see no other claims of notability and I don't think that it is. Papaursa (talk) 23:53, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
• Delete The article's sources fail to show notability. One source is a dead link, one is an article about his successor, and the third one is about his son being the family's third generation of police officer. None of these show the subject is notable. 131.118.229.17 (talk) 19:09, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
