[edit] Matthew Cutler

Non-notable bio; possible vanity. OntarioQuizzer 14:30, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Sorry, not notable. I'd dispute the claim about his campaign to become mayor of Pelham garnering "unprecedented local and national media coverage". I recall one article about the elections in Welland Tribune (Pelham has no daily newspaper of its own) that mentioned him as a "candidate darling"... National coverage for municipal elections in a 15,000 town? I think not. As for "challenging the apathy of local voters", IIRC his total vote count was in triple digits. His website, cutlerformayor.ca, is now offline but still preserved at Wayback machine. Navigation was via missing Java applets, so here are some subpages: [1] [2] [3] [4]. No relevant incoming wikilinks, and article, judging by the extravagant claims to "making a significant impact on ... international communities", most likely created by the subject. --Qviri 23:55, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as non-notable biography per Qviri. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-01-03 01:42Z
• Delete, I've seen some pretty POV things in my time, but this vanity page takes the biscuit. Dan 16:32, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as unverifiable, at least. Stifle 02:08, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. The winner of the election for mayor of a 15,000 person town is probably not notable, let alone the guy in fifth place, with 616 votes.[5] 616 isn't even enough to win a seat on the undergraduate senate at my college of 6,600 people. OCNative 06:53, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
