After a thorough examination, it does not appear that the subject has the GNG level coverage needed for a standalone article, and the subject doesn't pass NPOL either. Perhaps this can be redirected to Solicitor General of Ohio#List of Solicitors General. Let'srun (talk) 03:51, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect per nom. I think we have established at this point that a state solicitor general who is agency-appointed (not elected, and not appointed by the governor of the state or subject to state legislative confirmation) is not a WP:NPOL office. As the Solicitor General of Ohio article notes, "Most states' attorneys general offices have had separate divisions with chiefs specializing in state and federal appellate works". Calling the head of this office a "solicitor general" rather than a division chief is a matter of titling, not notability. BD2412 T 19:09, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
