Please do not add uncited edits to the article, as uncited edits are subject to deletion. Please list your additional information and corrections here first, so that we can find acceptable citations first. Please note that WP house style requires "mayor" to be lower case. Please do not remove existing citations. Thank you. Storye book (talk) 09:28, 2 January 2026 (UTC)Reply

Re conflict of interest on Wikipedia. Please note that if you are a family member or close friend of the family of the subject of the article, or if you are employed to edit the article by the subject of a WP article or their family or friends, then it is best if you do not edit the article yourself, because your edits would be subject to deletion. The situation would be worse if your edits are uncited because you are working from unpublished and unverifiable sources. This problem can (one hopes) be resolved if you declare on your talk page, your conflict of interest re this article, and contribute your potential edits on the article talk page, so that the facts can be verified and cited in an acceptable manner by experienced WP editors. Thank you. Storye book (talk) 09:42, 2 January 2026 (UTC)Reply
