- Redirect to Olympia, Washington. Ideally, I would like to see the History section of city articles touch upon their various mayors, and that would make this a plausible redirect. (Plus redirects are cheap.) Location (talk) 20:27, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect to Olympia, Washington as stated above. This article may be a possibility in the future when more information is reliably sourced on the topic.--Riverrunner123 (talk) 02:51, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Olympia, Washington. The current references are both dead, but at least one is replaceable - and primary, and therefore no good for WP:GNG, though it would be good for verifiability as of a bare matter of fact. The subject got plenty of local news coverage during his terms as councilman and mayor, but apparently nothing more - which puts him just below what I would regard as notable for an executive mayor in a city of this importance. I am generally unhappy about a redirect to an article which doesn't mention the subject - so I've taken up a suggestion made above and added a table of recent mayors to the proposed target article.
