Deletion of María Viramontes

Comment: I think there's some confusion as to why there are objections to an article with purely local coverage, especially for a politician. We need some sort of indication that the coverage is more significant than routine reporting on local affairs. We trust, for example, that The Day (New London) is a reliable newspaper in its region, but that doesn't mean that every city councilman from, say Groton, Connecticut should have an article. We need to try to use some  on what actually counts as significant coverage, and a bunch of one line mentions in routine articles is not that

Comment: I don't think that the subject is clearly non-notable, but there needs to be significant coverage to satisfy  in this case. She was a council member for a municipality, which does not itself indicate notability, and she was/is (?) the CEO of a foundation. I can't find anything about the foundation - and that's what I thought might lend more notability than the council seat, frankly. Show me sources and I'm happy to Keep this one, but I just don't see it

Comment: One of a series of cut-and-paste deletion nominations by this nominator. No indication that  has been followed in this case. I also find it offensive and contrary to policy that independent, published coverage in the local press is deemed not "independent enough." This is not NewYorkCitypedia or Londonpedia or Chicagopedia, this is Wikipedia

Comment: Fails . Coverage underwhelms, and hardly comes close to substantial, bordering on trivial. Most of it is routine and purely local
