When you have an item like "mayor of Pebbles
minor", you can make qualifiers
like predecessor and successor, start date and end date. When every town has
the same mayor, no such functionality is possible.
Start and end date are possible still as are predecessor and successor.
See Q17202594 which is one of the former mayors of Frederick and has all of
those qualifiers on him. Unless you meant on the city, in which case I am
slowing working towards that on Q472675 as well under "head of government".
Or am I misunderstanding you?
It is even said in the notability criteria that if we
can clearly identify the
concept, ... Mayor office of cities are amongst these identifiable items.
You've got me there. I could live with every city having a mayor item then.
That still makes me wonder what the purpose of the "of" qualifier is in
relation to "position held".
Looking at the "position held" docs, n the example given they use:
Barrack Obama -> Position Held -> United State Senator -> of -> United States
Senate.
This seems to be somewhat redundant information as the fact that he was "of"
the United States Senate seems to be implied by the very definition of being
a United States Senator. To recast it in terms of mayor, it would be like
saying Mayor of Frederick in Frederick.
I'm very confused now. Can anyone shed some light on what best practice should
be then?
Thank you,
