Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kirby Delauter
Here is what I wrote at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2015 January 8#Kirby Delauter about why  is not applicable: The subject has received coverage in three aspects of his life: (1) as president of the construction company W.F. Delauter & Son, (2) as a member of Frederick Board of County Commissioners, and (3) as a member of the Frederick County Council.'s first point says the policy applies "if reliable sources cover the person only in the context of a single event." Delauter has received significant coverage prior to this event; here is a small sample: {{cite news |date=2012-05-14 |title=Setting boundaries in Frederick |url=http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/opinion/editorial/bs-ed-frederick-20120514-story.html |newspaper=The Baltimore Sun |accessdate=2015-01-11 |archiveurl=http://www.webcitation.org/6VUfWnpSy |archivedate=2015-01-11 }}{{cite news |last=Greenfield |first=Sherry |date=2010-10-21 |title=Delauter says he will bid on county contracts if elected commissioner |url=http://ww2.gazette.net/stories/10212010/urbanew170922_32538.php |newspaper=The Gazette (Maryland)|The Gazette |accessdate=2015-01-11 |archiveurl= |archivedate=2015-01-11 }}{{cite news |last=Marshall |first=Ryan |date=2012-05-23 |title=Delauter defends comment on moving business |url=http://www.gazette.net/article/20120523/NEWS/705239449/1016/delauter-defends-comment-on-moving-business |newspaper=The Gazette (Maryland)|The Gazette |accessdate=2015-01-11 |archiveurl=http://www.webcitation.org/6VUfkyJ0J |archivedate=2015-01-11 }}{{cite news |last=Greenfield |first=Sherry |date=2010-07-29 |title=Delauter wants to bring changes to county board |url=http://ww2.gazette.net/stories/07292010/frednew154352_32545.php |newspaper=The Gazette (Maryland)|The Gazette |accessdate=2015-01-11 |archiveurl=http://www.webcitation.org/6VUfl5sLz |archivedate=2015-01-11 }}{{cite news |last=Rodgers |first=Bethany |date=2014-12-26 |title=Political Notes: Delauter says he reimbursed county for inauguration |url=http://www.fredericknewspost.com/news/news_regular_features/political_notes/political-notes-delauter-says-he-reimbursed-county-for-inauguration/article_adf191fc-a7bc-59f6-b0b6-330242fb1764.html |newspaper=Frederick News-Post |accessdate=2015-01-11 |archiveurl=http://www.webcitation.org/6VUgG4XKj |archivedate=2015-01-11 }}{{cite news |last=Gill |first=Thomas |date=2014-10-28 |title=It pays to be a county commissioner |url=http://www.fredericknewspost.com/locations/local/frederick_county/frederick/it-pays-to-be-a-county-commissioner/article_41e131f9-da28-5cf0-ab78-b5490aee32d4.html |newspaper=Frederick News-Post |accessdate=2015-01-11 |archiveurl=http://www.webcitation.org/6VUfVa4BS |archivedate=2015-01-11}} Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Politicians, says: Just 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 of the article". ''The Baltimore Sun'' is a major newspaper, the largest circulation newspaper in the state of Maryland. It cannot be dismissed as being a "small, local newspaper". Prior to this incident, Delauter arguably passed Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Politicians. After this incident, he clearly does.I have created a draft article at Draft:Kirby Delauter to discuss the three aspects of his life. I included the incident in the "Frederick County Council" section because it happened while he was (and still is) a county council member.. Because the event takes up a small part of the article, I do not believe the draft violates Wikipedia:Neutral point of view#Balancing aspects
