Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/William E. "Bill" Thornton
I initially felt that this person did not meet the notability guidelines for politicians and was about to nominate for deletion myself, but when I investigated further, I found enough coverage to suggest that  could be met. I would also support the reinstatement of the material removed from the article in https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=William_E._%22Bill%22_Thornton&diff=729783340&oldid=729783073 this edit
