Overall: While recognizing the importance of articles for under-represented groups, it does seem that this article has a significant Notability problem. It relies almost entirely on one source, which itself may be too tied to the subject to be deemed independent. The other issues could be eventually be resolved through substantial editing, such as to remove repetitive text and for NPOV. As an aside, might have tried an ALT hook that considers, for instance, the mayor's struggles in the community. Glad to discuss further, since I am a new reviewer, and certainly this article took time and effort. ProfGray (talk) 04:14, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@Yue: This isn't insurmountable, but should probably be addressed anyway.--Laun chba ller 19:49, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@ProfGray and Launchballer: With how busy I am abroad right now, I am fine with this being closed as a failed nom. I unfortunately do not have the time at the moment to fix my old work. Cheers. Yue🌙 01:46, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
