Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of mayors of Farmington, Missouri
Strictly speaking, the question of whether the mayors would qualify for their own standalone biographical articles or not is not relevant to the question of whether there's merit in maintaining a list of their names or not. Lists with closed-ended inclusion criteria, such as lists of holders of a specific political office, aren't subject to the "an article must already exist before an entry can be added to the list" rule that applies to open-ended lists where self-promoting wannabes keep trying to add themselves for publicity — for a list like this, the overarching principle is ''completeness'' rather than bluelinkedness. The more important problem here, rather, is that the information isn't actually |reliably sourced as being ''accurate'': the only "references" present here at all are some (but not all) of the listed mayors' Find a Grave entries, and a |user-generated list on Ancestry.com. So if somebody were to edit this list to change one or more mayors' names, there are no genuinely reliable references in place to verify which information is right and which is wrong — and if we can't be entirely sure that it's even ''accurate'', then we shouldn't be keeping it at all
