Proposed deletion

Only because 16 people from his town were killed in a plane crash. Notability is not inherited like that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.19.232.10 (talk) 16:48, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Klimpel is the mayor of a substantial German town (population 36,000) and is currently subject to much international press attention. There are also two good sources (although in German) for the article - a personal page and government website which provide his biography and electoral history respectively.

Those are primary sources. I will be nominating this page for deletion once it becomes clear that this POLITICIAN is not notable. Abductive (reasoning) 06:52, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

How big does a city have to be that the elected mayor becomes notable for en.wikipedia? --Gereon K. (talk) 12:35, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
