Deletion of Mohammed Hameeduddin

Comment: The innate notability of politicians laid out in  applies to office holders at the State or Federal level.  Local politicians's have to establish their notability through significant coverage in reliable sources.  ''Most'' local politicians aren't sufficiently covered by reliable sources.  There are exceptions.  Sorry nominator, I think a closer compliance to the advice of  would have shown you that Mr Hameeduddin is an exception.  We have PBS Newshour choosing to call for him to appear on-air to offer his opinion.  We have sholars from Australia, ''half a world away'', quoting him while comparing American and Australian attitudes.  This doesn't happen to ordinary mayors.  So please, pay more attention to BEFORE, next time, OK

Comment: This one didn't take long to assess at all. The subject was the mayor of a medium-sized town in New Jersey and was also embroiled in some controversey in the news. This passes  without a doubt. While the other points such as politician notability are also relevant, if the subject at least made it past the GNG hump it seems that would be enough

Comment: Sorry, but mayor is a "local office", and does not meet  "who have held international, national or sub-national (statewide/provincewide) office, and members or former members of a national, state or provincial legislature."  It says nothing of exceptions regarding this qualification.  That would have been covered in the second item, "received significant press coverage", which is clearly not the case in this minor official.  The amount of press this person has been given is less than other non-notable local politicians who have been deleted.  In fact, he fails to meet all 4 criteria.
