[edit] Carmen Vali-Cave

WP:BIO does not apper to meet 'Major local political figures who receive significant press coverage'. Vegaswikian 19:19, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

• Keep based on above quote of WP:BIO. A mayor is a major political figure. AFAIK, she's the biggest political figure in the community. An aldermen would be an example of a minor figure, that would usually be deleted (or maybe merged). Also "Upon incorporation on July 1, 2001, she was elected by her City Council colleagues to serve as the City's first Mayor.".[1] I think being the first mayor of a city, gives her a permanent degree of notability. --Rob 20:46, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Rob. The El Reyko 23:27, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, mayors are notable --Deville (Talk) 00:56, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep, as the first mayor, it makes her a little more notabble than other mayors may be. --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEMES?) 01:25, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
• Merge with Aliso Viejo, California, the city has only 40,000 residents, I don't see how she's notable outside of her neighbourhood. --Eivind^t@c 06:01, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
• Merge with Aliso Viejo. According to WP:BIO: Political figures holding international, national or statewide/provincewide office or members of a national, state or provincial legislature. Major local political figures who receive significant press coverage. A mayor of a larger city would most likely receive significant press coverage, but Aliso Viejo is not that large (I was just there a few weeks ago...everything closes at 9pm).

• Merge per EivindFOyangen and Ohnoitsjamie. — Rebelguys2 ^talk 06:33, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. One of the top political figures in this town. -- JJay 19:53, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. I do not understand what Vegaswikian has against Ms. Vali-Cave, but he seems determined to delete this poor woman's article. And without any solid reason that I can find. Kelly Martin (talk) 11:29, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
