Deletion of Dave Wilson (Ontario politician)

Comment: per .  This was challenging to review, because all the sources are offline.  I've checked a few at random, to ensure they are legit.  Since they were, I'll |trust the rest are.  I think 39 stories is pretty substantial coverage.  Of course, most weren't in-depth about him personally.  But, if you add up what they all say, you have a very substantial article.  This article contains far more *verified* facts than most MLA/MPP or MP articles.  I understand being an alderman or federal candidate does not grant notability, but it also should not revoke notability given by GNG.  I think throwing out such a heavily researched article would be a huge mistake.  If only every Wikipedian took the time to research a subject to this degree.  I think we've forgotten why we noramlly give articles to elected MPs and not alderman.  It's because we assume the MP is more likely to have substantial coverage than the alderman.  Yet, in this case, it's proven the alderman did get the coverage needed.  The nom dismisses the coverage as "minutiae", but that sets up an impossible standard.  You've predetermined that local politics is not signficant, and therefore dismiss any coverage of it, and than you find there's a lack of significant coverage.  We measure signficance by the level of coverage, and there's signficant coverage.  We should not impose our own opinions on what counts as important, but should instead follow the sources
