The result was delete. The combination of being unsourced, WP:BLP, and having at least one controversial assertion in the article did it in. No prejudice against a sourced recreation. GRBerry 20:42, 5 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
This article was written by a member of the subject's family. It's about a local politician who did all the usual local politician things, but it quite fails to show how this local politician differs from the thousands of other local politicians in Britain. He was once mayor of Colchester. That's not big deal - every town has a mayor, only one of them is Clint Eastwood. My son's teacher in year 5 at junior school was mayor of Reading; he did not give up the day job.
This article is about one of the very many worthy people who make up local politics. Worthy, but as far as an encyclopaedia is concerned, not notable. Cruftbane 21:31, 27 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
