Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Deborah Haswell
The language in  refers to "mayors of cities of at least regional importance", a statement that is vague enough that it's open to interpretation, with people arguing that the surrounding area is a region.  However, I can't see interpreting the policy to give a free pass to everyone who has ever been the mayor of a county seat.  It doesn't matter that Noq mistakenly referred to an administrative capital.  What he or she argues about London being the city of regional importance in that region holds true.  London, population 350,000.  Owen Sound, population 23,000.  No comparison.  Nothing against Ms. Haswell or against Owen Sound, ON, but if she wouldn't make it in without an elaborate argument about qualifying for automatic inclusion, that's a clue to the non-notability of being the town's mayor
