  • Delete. Mayors of small towns don't get an automatic free pass over WP:NPOL #2 just for existing — but this just cites a small smattering of the purely routine local coverage that every mayor of everywhere would always be simply expected to have, which is not enough to make him special.

  • Delete Concur with Bearcat and SportingFlyer. Person does not meet NPOL or GNG. Some entries in local history texts, but that's it. This is just a small city, an the position is not in and of itself significant. I took a look at List of mayors of Murray, Utah, and the mayors preceding this one also fail GNG and NPOL. They too need to be AfD'd. I didn't look past this mayor. @Stundra: created that list and the first four mayors on the list (and maybe all of them?). He's not been very active of late, but he did make an edit recently on May 2nd. Hopefully he'll chime in here. --Hammersoft (talk) 16:21, 10 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Here are a few examples of significant coverage in reliable, independent sources: (1) this and this from ESPN.com; (2) this from USA Today; (3) this, this and this from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution; (4) this story about a documentary film crew covering his senior year; (5) this from Sports Illustrated; (6) this from The Philadelphia Inquirer; and (7) this from CBS Sports.

Agree with deletion for all of the above HAT-P objects.

  • Keep. Even though the article is still in its formative stages, three news stories about the Honorable Watson have been found. Jc3s5h (talk) 00:20, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Three news stories is not enough to make the mayor of a town of just 7K notable for that, because every mayor of everywhere could always show three news stories. Our notability criteria for mayors is not "every mayor of everywhere gets an automatic in", however — it's "this mayor has a credible claim to being more notable than most mayors". Bearcat (talk) 20:33, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing over and above routine coverage that one would expect for a mayor in Google. Dom from Paris (talk) 13:31, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. At 7K, Montpelier is not large enough to hand its mayors an automatic presumption of notability per WP:NPOL #2 just for existing, but the sourcing here is not strong enough to get her over the "more notable than the norm among a not inherently notable class of topic" hump. The slightly weird fact that the Seattle Times would reprint a wire service article about a municipal election in Vermont admittedly starts down the path toward making her more notable than the norm — but it doesn't finish that race all by itself as the article's only piece of more than just WP:ROUTINE local coverage. Passing GNG is not just a question of whether the number of reliable sources in the article exceeds one, because every mayor of everywhere can always show n>1 sources — it's a question of the range and depth and volume of sourcing that can be shown, as well as the strength of the basic notability claim that the sources are supporting, but the range and depth and volume of sources shown here are not unusual enough to make a smalltown mayor a special case over and above most other smalltown mayors. Bearcat (talk) 20:33, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment. I was the admin who declined the A7 speedy on this. No opinion either way on notability, but despite its size the town is a state capital, there is a populated category for Mayors of Vermont, and the previous incumbent has an article without any obvious sources of notability beyond the mayoral position. I also consider the REI Co-op Journal ref [1] to be some indication of non-local significance, as it is a national publication, though by no means a high-quality one. Espresso Addict (talk) 00:20, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No, I looked at that one, and it seemed to be mostly some sort of web-shop. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 09:45, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep While sourcing is still weak, I think the item on her successful multi-year push for statewide varsity status of "Ultimate" adds a separate source of notability. Several sources have mentioned her as an "award-winning" teacher. Details about that award might add a 3rd source, and those must be out there. I also think that Espresso Addict's point about Montpelier being a state capital has merit. A state capital automatically has exposure to state-wide or regional issues (and coverage) in a way that other towns of similar size do not. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 00:57, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • There appears to be a possibly relevant source in The Science Teacher, Volume 74, Issues 1-6, p56. However the Google Books snippet does not show enough for me to use the source. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 01:10, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I just added sourced content on her Knowles Senior teaching Fellowship, and an appearance before the State Education Committee. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 01:40, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • And on a Teaching Certification. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 01:55, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • None of which are notability claims in and of themselves. (A teacher, with a teaching certification? Well, I'll be, I haven't heard of anything so crazy in at least five minutes now!) Bearcat (talk) 05:16, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • The teacher certification is an optional one, given by a national organization. You might expect to find one or two teachers with this certification per school. Still, this is comparable in politics to being a city council member, not comparable to being, say, a state legislator, which seems to be the minimum level in politics to rate a Wikipedia article. Jc3s5h (talk) 08:56, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I think when one combines:
  • the teaching certification/award (described by the source a "very prestigious" and said to be givn to fewer than 1.5% of teachers nationally),
  • the teaching senior fellowship, awarded by an outside non-profit (also described as prestigious by the news source),
  • the years-long state-wide advocacy for the acceptance of Ultimate as a varsity-level sport, and its eventual success,
  • the advocacy for the international student program before the state legislature,
  • the grant to plan said international student program
  • coaching a sports team that has gone to state-wide championships twice (mentioned in two sources now cited in the article , but not currently in the article itself)
  • serving on the town council for several years
  • being elected mayor of a state capitol city
  • Being described by a national publication as one of the "five coolest mountain-town mayors"
  • Coverage in the Seattle Times, about as non-local as one can get, then
The result adds up to notability, although far from the strongest case for notability ever seen here. No one item alone amounts to notability, but taken together, I think this is over the line. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 17:49, 1 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have corrected some of the information that you added and sourced it. The news source that you cited had not verified the claims I think. Only 3.3% of tearchers are certified it's true but there is a 65% pass rate. According to sources I have looked at the small number of certified teachers is due to the cost, 2500$, and the 400 hours of work necessary to do it. The source states this is the gold standard for teachers, I think that a doctor's degree is higher. The coolest mayor claim is in a blog on a co-op site that sells mountain gear. Not exactly a reliable source for notability I think. Dom from Paris (talk) 08:20, 3 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - article could use some cleanup and further expansion, not deletion, per WP:ATD.Hmlarson (talk) 05:17, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong keep - Aside from the views of a minuscule number of Wikipedia users, becoming mayor of a U.S. state capital, no matter how small, is more than enough for recognition. Her bio deserves a further expansion and clean-up, but not deletion. Watson's status as the mayor of a capital, even if it is the smallest, is fine. It's also unusual to delete an article on a sitting, incumbent state capital mayor. All that said, there's a sports and athletics aspect to her bio and career as well. Watson led a successful multi-year effort to have Ultimate Frisbee recognized as varsity sport. In 2017, thanks largely to Watson, Vermont approved Ultimate's varsity status, becoming the first state in the country to do so. Her efforts have been recognized not just by local and state publications (which is more than enough), but also by the Associated Press, sports publications and newspapers outside Vermont. It's a cool bit of both sports history and women's history. I've added sources about her Ultimate campaign and plan to add more about her political career as well. It's an example of why we should never throw the baby out with the bathwater, which unfortunately is too often the case with mayors on Wikipedia. Scanlan (talk) 13:36, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This discussion has been included in the list of Sports-related deletion discussions. Scanlan (talk) 13:41, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That argument is a failure of understanding WP:GNG, right there. You don't get automatic notability for becoming mayor of a state capital, that's straight up WP:ILIKEIT. SportingFlyer talk 17:32, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Where specifically does it say verbatim "You don't get automatic notability for becoming mayor". Scanlan (talk) 22:35, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
WP:POLOUTCOMES. I quote: Mayors of smaller towns, however, are generally deemed not notable just for being mayors, although they may be notable for other reasons in addition to their mayoralty (e.g. having previously held a more notable office). I don't see additional notability here. SportingFlyer talk 22:45, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Where is the proof that it is thanks largely to Watson that ultimate frisbee was recognised as a varsity sport? The source quotes her "Anne Watson said she began the push for varsity recognition seven years. " Sounds like she is blowing her own horn and this is a primary source for that statement. Here's another source about the same story that doesn't mention her. [2] Dom from Paris (talk) 17:50, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That's the same Associated Press story by Wilson Ring, nearly word-for-word, that's already cited in the article under Daily Hampshire Gazette]. The only difference between the two is that Boston.com edits down the length a bit. Otherwise, same AP article, author, and source. Scanlan (talk) 22:35, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You don't see a sourcing notability issue if a paper took the same AP article published elsewhere and edited the subject out completely while still maintaining a decent length to the article? SportingFlyer talk 22:46, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • comment I checked out the other 4 mayors of this town that have pages and 3 were also state representatives and the other that wasn't is going through Afd. The attempts to bolster her notability with reports of her very normal educational career and her ultimate frisbee activities do nothing to show real notability. Even the wording in the article is misleading "first female mayor... since" suggesting that it is noteworthy, whereas there seems to have been quite a few female mayors of the town over the past few decades. Dom from Paris (talk) 08:17, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Well, there my judgement differs from yours. I do agree that the 'first female mayor" line is misleading and I will reword it -- it i a recent change. But I think the Ultimate Frisbee activities are probably enough for notability on their own. And when you combine everything -- well just how often does one find a person who has been president of a ton council and then a Mayor, granted of a small town, but still a state capitol; who has coached a high-school sports team to the state finals in multiple years, with one state championship; who has led a multi-year push for state-wide recognition of a new sport; who has been through a 5-year junior teaching fellowship and now holds a senior fellowship; who has received two further separate fellowships/grants from NGOs; who has appeared in testimony on a quite different issue before a state legislative committee; and whose article now includes some twenty cited sources? Are you going to tell me that one person combining all of that is "very normal"? Well if you are, i disagree. And it seems that several other editors disagree as well. This is well within the judgement zone, and I don't think a closer will see a consensus to delete here. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 12:55, 8 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BLP, with some advertorial overtones, of a writer and academic whose claims of notability are depending far too strongly on primary sources (her own writing about herself or other things, the websites of directly affiliated organizations, etc.) with very little evidence of reliable source coverage about her shown at all. As always, a writer does not get over WP:GNG by being the bylined author of all or even most of her article's sources -- she gets over GNG by being the subject of media coverage. Even the glowing review quotes (which are not a basis for notability in and of themselves) are referenced not to any media coverage of those quotes being spoken, but solely to her own self-published PR profile on the website of a conference she spoke at. Writers are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they and their work exist, but nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to be referenced much, much better than this is for a Wikipedia article to become earned.

  • Keep I think that there is enough coverage out there to meet WP:GNG. Here is one example that I found without too much trouble where she is the subject of a Chicago Tribune article. Her named/distinguished professorship at UConn would generally also meet WP:PROF; she’s not listed on the UConn Board of Trustees Distinguished Professor page yet, but I found a letter online indicating that she has been recommended for it in the last few days.

  • Keep. I believe her widely-covered books and nationally syndicated weekly column make her suitable for WP:AUTHOR. She was officially given distinguished professorship Sunday May 6, and added to the Board of Trustees earlier this year which surely qualifies her for WP:PROF. In response to her not being "covered" in media, she was on Oprah, will look for the link. —Dylan Smith (talk) 15:17, 10 May 2018 (ET)

Article about a television series which never actually made it on the air. As always, a television series that never actually got broadcast does not pass WP:TVSHOW just because its initial entry into the production pipeline is technically verifiable to glancing namechecks of its existence in coverage of the network's overall announcement of its production slate — a series has to actually go to air, and receive substantive reliable source coverage about it, to clear our notability standards for television series. Apart from the two glancing namechecks, however, the only other references here are a non-notable Blogspot blogger's post about how people keep asking her if she's related to Paul Mooney because her name is Paula Mooney, and an IMDb page — but IMDb is not a reliable or notability-supporting source in and of itself either, and even the "overview" given here is a barely concealed cut and paste of the IMDb description, posing WP:COPYVIO problems. There's just no real basis for notability here, if it never aired and can't be significantly better sourced as notable for some other reason. Bearcat (talk) 15:09, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Single-entry "episode list" of a thing that was never actually a television series: it was a failed pilot that went to air as a one-off television film, but never had any further "episodes" to list at all. Further, the film doesn't even have a Wikipedia article about the film — a prior attempt got deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fairest of the Mall in 2014, and then this got created in 2017 in what looks suspiciously like a deliberate attempt to dodge the original AFD result by giving it an alternate title (because what other reason could there be to call it, or structure it as, an "episode list" instead of a straight article about a television film?) And of course, even if enough reliable sourcing about its airing as a film could be found to recreate it now, this would still be a misleading title not appropriate for retention as a redirect. So either way, this is just a pointless article that completely misrepresents its actual topic. Bearcat (talk) 14:37, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep, or at least recycle. There's a lot of good information here which shouldn't be lost. People are always going to be writing (often in absurd detail) about the latest developments, but here we have a good history of the subject. Let's not throw that out. If it really bothers you that it's not up to date, that can be fixed by bringing it up to date. In the alternative, rename it to something like Comparison of layout engines from 1990 to 2012 or whatever. Wikipedia is too much focused on what's new and shiny. I'm OK with merging this into some other existing article, or refactoring it in some other way, but let's not discard the information. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:07, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with the historical value argument, which is an important part of why I cleaned up the HTML and CSS comparison articles a week ago. (But I won't be doing any more personally.) The problems with the DOM article are worse than those peers, though, in 2 respects: the tables are in worse shape, and it's a more abstruse technical topic that would probably require legit expertise to know what's going on. -Pmffl (talk) 15:12, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I just now renamed this article to Comparison of JavaScript engines (DOM support). After responding to RoySmith, it occurred to me that the DOM is best approached from the JavaScript (JS) perspective. As I recently made clear in my rewrite of the web browser engine article, the 2 engines of a modern browser (layout and JS) stay in sync via the DOM. But in terms of actual DOM function call usage, that's primarily a JS programmer concern. So this DOM comparison article really is best categorized under the JS engine umbrella.

So instead of deleting it, it's now in the purview of the wikipedians who would be capable of updating and maintaining it: the JavaScript programmers.

  • Redirect Delete. This is not just any old annual with reprints plus some games etc. etc., it is AFAICT the only time an English language version of Asterix Conquers Rome was published. I have copied this source from the latter to the article under discussion, and you should think more good sources were out there, but I can't find them. Anybody else? I won't mind a redirect to Asterix Conquers Rome where the book is mentioned. But as the article stands now, NBOOK is not met.

  • Per ATD, PRESERVE and R, this article cannot be deleted for lack of notability because it could be merged and redirected to Asterix Conquers Rome. I don't think that annuals can generally be presumed non-notable as not all are reprints (unlike this one) and some do receive coverage (eg Doctor Who and Blue Peter respectively).

  • Keep. The current article doesn't remotely approach the sourcing standards of the modern project, but then again, it's a relic of 2005, when it survived a deletion nomination. That said, there's a surprisingly deep well of sources to draw from for article improvement here. For example:
Bernal, José Carlos Hesles (2008). "'¿Le gusta este jardín?': el conflicto por el Casino de la Selva". Secuencia (in Spanish) (71): 83–101. doi:10.18234/secuencia.v0i71.1044.

Now, quite a bit of the coverage of this Mexican organization is, predictably, in Spanish.

  • Keep. The current state of the article is irrelevant – it can be improved. The question is whether the subject is notable and should have an article, and that is clearly the case. I just translated Casino de la Selva from the Spanish wiki. It could use a major expansion from the many sources available online.

The two articles about him are titled "Did you see this Hamilton native on WrestleMania?" and "Hamilton native guest host on GAC show", which makes it clear that this is coverage by a local journal based solely on local interest.

Apparently not notable by our new and more stringent standards for businesses (and probably not by the old ones either). It carries on the routine business of a gallery, buying and selling works of art, and receives some routine coverage as a result. Some of those works are by famous artists, and thus attract media attention; but the purveyor does not inherit notability from the notability of the products purveyed – a car dealer is not notable because he sells cars of notable makes.

  • Keep Because I think there is enough coverage about the gallery to establish notability. Take for example this article in artnews the profiles the gallery upon its opening of a New York location. [3]. This is not routine coverage. Additionally there are many reviews of exhibitions at the galleries. I think it’s an interesting question as to whether the notability of the artists represented by the gallery should or should not have any impact on our assessment of the notability of the gallery. Or to put it a different way: should a review of an artist’s Show at a gallery contribute to establishing the notability of the gallery? The review is about the artist, but it’s a show that is taking place at the gallery. In that regard, it’s not about inheriting notability (as if a gallery could gain notability from an exhibition They had shown at a different gallery) but rather about the notability of the exhibition that also notable artist has produced at this gallery. The meaningfulness of such reviews is especially clear in contrast to DTR Modern Galleries the other gallery currently here at AfD. Theredproject (talk) 00:13, 28 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete this is basically an advertisement for the gallery, which on its own has done little that merits notability. The fact that it shows notable artists is does not make the gallery notable, just as the fact that notable artists but X brand of paint paint does not make the paint notable. The sources are of the business promotion type, meaning all in all this fails GNG.104.163.159.237 (talk) 06:19, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The gallery is obviously notable. It is pointless to argue that an ongoing exhibition schedule of artwork does not contribute to the notability of the institution, and sources are available providing a small amount of commentary on the gallery itself. Bus stop (talk) 12:11, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question and Comment: I am trying to understand how HighKing, K.e.coffman, and 104.163.159.237 are interpreting NCORP, and I am concerned that NCORP is not particularly suited to evaluating art galleries. What I believe I am understanding, is that your interpretations of NCORP argues that a review of an exhibition cannot establish notability because it is not independent. Is this a correct understanding? Furthermore, it is considered inherited, because the review is of the art not the gallery -- is this correct? --Theredproject (talk) 15:51, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Theredproject, I also look forward to reading what those three editors have to say; meanwhile, here's my take: the crucial bit of WP:NCORP is WP:CORPDEPTH: "Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject is not sufficient to establish notability. Deep or significant coverage provides an overview, description, commentary, survey, study, discussion, analysis, or evaluation of the product, company, or organization. Such coverage provides an organization with a level of attention that extends well beyond brief mentions and routine announcements, and makes it possible to write more than a very brief, incomplete stub about the organization". With the exception of the one artnews source that you have mentioned above – which is mostly about Lee, but does have some coverage of his gallery business – I don't see where we can find such "overview, description, commentary, survey, study, discussion, analysis, or evaluation" of this particular business. This gallery carries on the same routine activities as any other – it promotes artists and tries to sell (or sometimes buy) their works, often by holding exhibitions. Those artists may at times be sufficiently notable that a show attracts the attention of the press (and of course the gallery does its best to make sure that it does). In general, a review of such a show discusses the artist and the artist's work, but often does not contain any coverage of the gallery itself beyond a mention of the place and dates of the exhibition (e.g., “Valerie Snobeck: Reservoirs” runs January 13 through February 11, 2016 at Simon Lee Gallery, Hong Kong); in my view, that falls precisely under "brief mentions and routine announcements".
This question has come up before, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Galleria d'Arte Maggiore. There I wrote "A car dealer does not become notable because he sells well-known brands of car, a butcher's shop does not become notable because it sells a famous kind of meat, a second-hand charity shop does not become notable because it sells clothes made by famous companies. How is this different?". Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 18:19, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
How is this different? While art may be cars, meat or clothing, it is not necessarily any of these things. We are talking about an art gallery. Art is very loosely defined. It is not necessarily oil paint on canvas. In order to provide coverage of art it is helpful to include coverage of art galleries because that is where much art receives exposure to the public. We need not deprive the reader of access to information about the fundamental means by which art reaches wider audiences than an artist's small circle of acquaintances. Art galleries play a crucial role in ferrying artworks from the artist's studio to the more or less permanent collections of the more august art museums. The art galleries themselves maintain a minimal presence because they do not wish to overshadow the work contained therein. They are not only physically empty spaces but they allow the sort of art commonly shown to define the gallery itself. An owner or operator of an art gallery is transmitting his or her taste in art to the public by the sort of art chosen for exhibition within its space. The true gauge of notability for an art gallery should be the notability of the artwork shown and consistent long-term schedules of exhibitions whether that artwork is notable or not. Reviews of shows therefore are not to be overlooked and in fact should be looked to for an accurate indication of the notability of art galleries. Unfortunately our notability guidelines overlook the factors that are specifically pertinent to art galleries, resulting in the needless deletion of relatively important articles.

  • Delete Usually notability cannot be inherited, but WP:BIO seems the only specific category to not possess that statement, and reading it, it seems rather blurred. So having a look at the 4 points of WP:CREATIVE:
  1. (important figure/widely cited) clearly isn't the case, or we'd see the refs;
  2. (new technique etc) no indication of that being the case;
  3. (co-create well-known work) that it has to be the primary part of the work would seem to rule out having provided music to games - if you named the top 3 people in the game's creation, he wouldn't be in it;
  4. (works have won significant acclaim) - have we seen actual refs praising the music of these games, otherwise it can't count Nosebagbear (talk) 12:42, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This is another extremely messy case. First off, the name itself, as we spell it, seems to come entirely from news accounts of the rescue of Jessica Buchanan and Poul Hagen Thisted; these accounts, however, inconsistently describe Gadaado, some calling it a town, others not specifying what it is, one at least referring to an "encampment". Geonames, however, has other ideas, for first of all it calls it "Cadaado", and second refers to it as a "locality". Where they point, there are three nearby areas which have the typical hedge-encircled cleared areas which on finds in some of the towns, but there is no trace of a building at any of the three— and which of them might be C/Gadaado? To confuse matters further, our article on the rescue refers to the place as "Adow", which is a name that nobody else seems to recognize. If it weren't for the raid, I would absolutely advocate deletion; possibly, however, we should point at the article on the raid, but then we would need to do something about the naming ambiguity there.

Non-notable mayor. Several sources, but none of them convey notability under WP:GNG (many are directory listings or sources that are also possibly WP:OR, for instance which year his child passed away) and fails WP:NPOL completely so we can't otherwise assume notability. It also appears there are a number of mayors with articles for this municipality that probably don't pass WP:GNG either. SportingFlyer talk 06:00, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • WP:HEYMANN, Keep. I did a little expand on this old-time mayor, now sourced from obits in the old New York Herald Tribune and New York Times. Also added an academic article and a contemporary magazine article about Norwalk's construction of an early municipal electric power plant (a first in the state). Nom mentions son; although I chose not to add it to article, there was quite a lot of press about the fact that Robbins son (his only child) was murdered, the case drew a fair amount of press at the time. I do not see how deletion this sort of article helps the project, especially now that it is sourced.E.M.Gregory (talk) 11:13, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the research! Unfortunately, I can't access those sources for my own review, and I'm still not certain I would agree they make this mayor notable for reasons other than being a mayor of a relatively small municipality, so I won't withdraw at this time. SportingFlyer talk 18:31, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Norwalk is located inside the New York metropolitan area (it's in that little panhandle of Connecticut that pokes into Westchester County), so I'm not convinced that New York City newspapers giving him obituaries upon his death constitutes notability in and of itself. But apart from the obituaries, this is otherwise far too dependent on primary sources, and glancing namechecks of his existence in coverage about other things, to say that he passes WP:GNG — literally the only other source left that escapes both of those disqualifiers is purely WP:ROUTINE verification of an election result in an even more local-to-Norwalk newspaper, which is a kind of source that every mayor in the history of mayoralty could always show. The inclusion test for mayors of smaller cities is not just being able to cite a few sources to verify that they existed — it's being able to cite enough sources to demonstrate that they're significantly more notable than most other mayors of most other smaller cities, but the sourcing here just isn't convincingly doing that. Bearcat (talk) 14:12, 7 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Mayors receive routine coverage; that should be a given. Obituaries in the individual's locality is routine; their election results are, too, routine. Notice the trend? Being verifiable does not grant a politician notability, and these other sources--these passing mentions--do not convince me that GNG or NPOL are satisfied. A heymann can be a positive thing when it isn't little more than window dressing.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 22:28, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. I'm actually the original creator here, but I did so at a very different time in Wikipedia's history — in 2005, our notability standards weren't nearly as dependent on the distinction between reliable and primary sources as they are now. Rather, the fact of multistation syndication was considered an "inherent" notability claim for a radio program, such that as long as the program's own website technically verified the fact as true, the program was "entitled" to have a Wikipedia article and exempted from ever actually having to cite any non-primary sources. That's no longer how it works, however — over the 13 years since, we've learned a lot of hard lessons about how much that approach left us open to advertorialism and even outright hoaxery, so our notability rules have been rightly and wisely tightened up a lot more. But this simply doesn't have the depth of coverage needed to meet the stricter standards that apply in 2018. Bearcat (talk) 12:56, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
