Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Luke Cubis
While ''some'' of the articles in the {{cl|Deputy mayors}} tree may need to be reviewed, what WikiLuke is missing is that (a) Beijing is a major international global city, which is that rare class of cities where we accept even the regular city councillors as passing , which Lake Macquarie is ''not'', and (b) in the Israel and New Zealand categories it may be true that ''some'' of the articles may need to be reviewed for whether they're actually suitable for inclusion or not, many others are people who also served in the ''national'' Parliament of New Zealand or the Knesset and thus unconditionally pass  #1 ''regardless'' of the notability or non-notability of deputy mayors per se. Which makes them not relevant to this article's includability or deletability, because they're not equivalent situations. At any rate, deputy mayors are ''not'' a class of people who get an automatic presumption of notability on Wikipedia just because they exist — but what we've got here for referencing is a directly affiliated |primary source (his profile on the city's own website), a |routine list of ''all'' of the candidates in his electoral district, and just one reference that's actually about him (as well as two |circular "references" to other Wikipedia articles, which had to be stripped because we're not allowed to do that). This is ''not'' enough coverage to consider him a special case who's somehow ''more'' notable than the norm among an otherwise ''non''-notable class of officeholders. And our |conflict of interest rules preclude Luke from creating the article himself, as well
