Delete per nominator....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 15:25, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Biased Keep Yeah, I created this. I'll vote keep -- if a biased vote is even allowed. It's history. Most big city mayors, except a few very big city mayors, are rather non-notable. A few American mayors have been state representatives are something like that or perhaps the relative of a more famous person, but that's about it usually.

Additional I am not sure why there is a sudden fury to delete several articles that I created and have been around in wikipedia for the past 7 1/2 years! I guess I really wasted countless hours of time with this project. Durindaljb (talk) 18:19, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This place is miniscually small. There is no expectation that the mayor would be notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:36, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails WP:LISTN. Not one notable politician on this list. KidAd • SPEAK 19:16, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete. There's at least one reliable book that actually covers the mayors of Jackson County, Missouri as if they are one coherent topic (The History of Jackson County, Missouri (1881)), but the County is not the city of Jackson (they are on opposite sides of the state). This indicates that the sourcing to justify WP:NLIST might exist if it's a sizeable city and it makes me somewhat hesitant to pull the trigger on delete because I suspect that there's some newspaper articles or books that might give a history of the mayors. But, I'm not able to find them, and neither are the people above, so deletion seems like the policy-compliant outcome. — Mhawk10 (talk) 01:50, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
