Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Walton Stowell
According to his obit, http://www.herald-mail.com/?cmd=displaystory&story_id=215951&format=html He earned a reputation locally and statewide, even nationally, for his architectural designs and knowledge of historic preservation, and there's other http://www.google.com/archivesearch?q=Walton+Stowell&scoring=a&sa=N&start=0 press coverage from both his time as |mayor and his work as an architect (although at least one of those does look like an advert).  Article needs an awful lot of work to take out the autobio and commercial, and this !vote would be stronger if there was more evidence of the national reputation, but I'm not convinced it's not salvageable.  If it is deleted, I'd recommend
