Deletion of Jimmy Harte

Comment: I'm pretty confused here. It seems to me that according to #Politicians '''he is''' automatically notable. Please remember: ''members and former members of a national, state or '''provincial''' legislature''. As a member of the Donegal County Council, wouldn't this make him clearly covered

Comment: It needs ''evidence'' of notability, per , not just an assertion that he "seems to be notable". Per #PoliticiansJust being an elected local official, or an unelected ''candidate'' for political office, does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the |primary notability criterion of "significant coverage in Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable sources that are Wikipedia:Verifiability#Sources|independent of the subject.""a reference or two" is not enough: we need substantial coverage, otherwise the article will be deleted, like dozens of other non-notable biographies every week

Comment: Thanks for that link. I see several stories which mention Harte, mostly in the context of the elections, but I don't see that he is the subject of any substantial coverage, as required by #Politicians
