WP:BLPs of several politicians, not properly sourced as passing WP:NPOL. The only claims here are that they served on the local council of a municipality, which is not an "inherently" notable role and instead hinges on the quality and depth of the sourcing you can use to write an article with some actual substance about the significance of their political careers (specific things they did, specific projects they spearheaded, specific effects their term in office had on the municipality, etc.) -- but these all just state that the people exist, the end, and all use only a listing on the self-published website of the municipal council for sourcing.
While Greenland is small enough that municipal councillors could potentially be viewed as more prominent and significant in that context than usual, we long ago deprecated the notion that county or municipal councillors would get an automatic "promotion" from sourcing-dependent notability under NPOL #2 ("local officeholders") to "inherent" notability under NPOL #1 ("national or state/provincial legislatures") just because their country doesn't have a state or provincial level of office between the national legislature and the local councils -- so these councillors' notability would still have to be established by sourcing the articles to proper WP:GNG-worthy coverage about their work rather than relying on a single primary source.

Weak Delete, with my major complaint being the lack of secondary sources. No objection to recreation if better sourcing is found and notability can be established per WP:NPOL. —Locke Cole • t • c 23:05, 6 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all. The expectation of a local official is sourcing that shows much more than they exist and actually discusses the significance of their time in office. Size of jurisdiction does not matter in application of this expectation. --Enos733 (talk) 19:06, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
