Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Edwin F. Peterson
Nothing stated here hands him an automatic  pass — the political offices he held were at the local level, not the state or national levels — but the article is referenced nowhere close to well enough to demonstrate that he's of significantly greater notability than most other smalltown municipal politicians. It depends overwhelmingly on |primary sources that do not count as support for notability at all — and the stuff that is actually real |reliable source media coverage is entirely from his own local newspaper, a type of coverage that ''every'' local political figure in ''every'' town or city can routinely ''expect'' to receive. This is not how you demonstrate that a smalltown municipal politician is notable enough to merit an article in an international encyclopedia
