Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Buck Elliott
mdash;tis true that the article doesn't make the case for his notability, but as we read in  esp D3, this is not a reason for deletion.  there are sources attesting to elliott's notability: http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=LQUxAAAAIBAJ&sjid=7uEFAAAAIBAJ&pg=4965,333244&dq=buck-elliott&hl=en here and http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=YCFKAAAAIBAJ&sjid=FiINAAAAIBAJ&pg=7056,4344102&dq=buck-elliott&hl=en here and http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=MUAwAAAAIBAJ&sjid=aUgDAAAAIBAJ&pg=6035,4945394&dq=buck-elliott&hl=en here and http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=8lghAAAAIBAJ&sjid=9IUFAAAAIBAJ&pg=4002,4384779&dq=buck-elliott&hl=en here and http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=LgUxAAAAIBAJ&sjid=7uEFAAAAIBAJ&pg=4814,503041&dq=buck-elliott&hl=en here too, and even a couple of mentions in the nyt, which i can't link to from here.  seems to me to meet gng, let alone wp:ath. what the article creator has failed to do is irrelevant. (note to Alex: many of those ghits are for another buck elliot who played in the 20's.  i've picked out the best ones about this guy from the first three pages of gnews hits, but there were many pages to go).&mdash
