Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mark Wright (politician)
I reverted the deletion of this article because I believe the notability bar has been passed in this case.  I of course agree that a lot of councillors and PPCs don't merit their own article however this guy has had a significant coverage in the local press, particularly in comparison to most, and that is enough to satisfy , being ''a member of a council of a major metropolitan city''.  Opinions voiced so far about the quality of the articles in which he features are subjective opinion - the articles in question still constitute appropriate coverage from reliable sources, the only argument revolves around the depth to which articles in the Bristol Evening Post go.  However the quality of the newspaper is not relevant to this discussion, as long as it itself passes the reliability test, which it clearly does.  Put simply, if this councillor wasn't a notable figure on the regional political scene, the BEP wouldn't be writing about him at all, being as notoriously unwilling to give any column inches to the Lib Dems as they are
