*'''Delete''' per NPOL. Maybe I'm wrong, but his roles seem to have been more of what we in the United States call a [[city manager]], rather than a political leader. [[User:Bearian|Bearian]] ([[User talk:Bearian|talk]]) 18:26, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
*'''Delete''' as mayors are not notable for an article just for being a mayor, and we have nothing else on him showing notability.

*'''Comment''' I have added 10 references from [[Algemeen Dagblad]], [[Leeuwarder Courant]], and [[Nieuwsblad van het Noorden]]. These are just a few of the many sources on the mayor. The references are tilted towardstoward his earlier positions as the newspapers of these years have been archived and made available to the wide public. Not all newspapers are included in the [[Delpher]] database. I did not check but it is very well possible that the rest is available through the [[Krant van Toen]] database. Algemeen Dagblad is consistently the second-largest newspaper of the Netherlands, Leeuwarder Courant is distributed over the entire province of Friesland (the most populous province in the north) and Nieuwsblad van het Noorden served all readers of the other two northern provinces (since then renamed Dagblad van het Noorden). I appreciate if [[User:Bearian|Bearian]], [[User:SportingFlyer|SportingFlyer]], and [[User:Bearcat|Bearcat]] can give this a bit more thought as the references clearly prove that the [[WP:GNG]] and [[WP:NPOL]] have been met.

::Yep! [[De Krant van Toen]] archive has many more articles, focused on the Dutch mayor and football chairman. I have brought this to 12. There's no problem increasing the numbers, of course. Arlman has plenty of coverage. It just isn't clear why he is nominated in the first place. [[User:Gidonb|gidonb]] ([[User talk:Gidonb|talk]]) 06:09, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
:::Mayors aren't generally notable even though they receive coverage, since every mayor will be discussed in their local paper. I still don't think [[WP:NPOL]] is met. However his football chairmanship may get him over the [[WP:GNG]] line.
