[WikiEN-l] Inclusion and deletion of Mayors

[wjhonson at aol.com]

Forking the last discussion, many moons ago I had worked on John Laird
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Laird_(California)

You'll notice that he was Mayor of Santa Cruz for two terms.  Just on a 
lark I scanned for other Mayors of Santa Cruz and came up with a 
half-dozen or so and some that could probably be worked up with various 
decent sources.  In fact a few of them, I'm surprised that we don't yet 
have an article about.

At any rate, I'm sure nobody would object to having the list of Mayors 
of San Francisco for example with an article about each (where we could 
find good sources), but how small do we want to go?  In terms of actual 
articles, boxes, categories about political figures?  A list of all 
mayors of a city like Tacoma Washington with a population of about 
300,000 ?

Santa Cruz only has a population of about 75,000.  John Laird just 
happens to be more than normally famous because he went on to bigger 
things.
