Another non-notable small-town mayor. Coverage from local media on local issues only. No significance whatsoever outside his own small town. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:22, 5 October 2016 (UTC)

• Delete. A well-sourced and substantive article about a mayor could potentially be kept regardless of the city's size, but WP:NPOL does not confer an automatic presumption of notability on all mayors. A city would have to be twice the size of La Crosse before his mere existence as a mayor was a compelling enough claim of notability in and of itself to get the "keep and flag for refimprove" treatment rather than the "delete" treatment.

• Delete per {{U|Bearcat}} (no relation). There are lots of cities this size (of about 50,000 people), and most mayors of such small cities are too common for each to have their own article. Bearian (talk) 20:45, 6 October 2016 (UTC)

Delete I agree with Bearian almost to a tee. Dolotta (talk) 22:25, 6 October 2016 (UTC)

• Delete being mayor of La Crosse does not make one notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:40, 9 October 2016 (UTC)
