Neutral point of view

@Deb: in what way do think the article is not neutral? Steelkamp (talk) 11:43, 14 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

TBH, I'm not even sure that this local politician is notable. The article appears to emphasize events that appear to be to his credit ("beating ten other candidates"; "His achievements at the City of Joondalup include..." I'm not suggesting he did anything discreditable, but it's borderline. Deb (talk) 11:49, 14 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Things that could be added include his views on local government amalgamations (which were proposed by the state government during his WALGA presidency), and accusations in 2012 that he assaulted a fellow councillor. That first point will go towards proving his notability, and that second point will go towards making the article appear more neutral. Steelkamp (talk) 12:04, 14 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
As a former president of the Australian Local Government Association, which is a national body, that makes him notable, at the very least. Editrite! (talk) 09:41, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
