[edit] John P. Kelly (Philadelphia)

John P. Kelly (Philadelphia) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Per WP:BIO. Non-notable local politician. No significant press coverage outside of the Philadelphia metro area beyond a couple of stories about the foie gras ban. Very little local coverage found as well based on a search of Newslibrary.com for 'John P. Kelly Philadelphia'. Just being on the council of a large American city does not confer notability.

  • Delete, city councillors are a dime a dozen. Not notable as far as the position goes. Lankiveil 02:02, 20 May 2007 (UTC).
  • Delete A quick skim through some search results revealed nothing usable. Adrian M. H. 15:06, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. I do believe that being on the city council of a large city confers notability. Abeg92contribs 19:50, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
    • No it doesn't "Just being an elected local official does not guarantee notability." He's apparently done little besides getting elected. DarkAudit 20:05, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
