[edit] Wilson Rawls

Incomplete? Geneaology project? Doesn't appear notable. Gazpacho 10:20, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, not notable. Megan1967 10:39, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. I reverted the article back to the point in its history where the notability is clear, before someone overwrote the stub data with an incomplete biography . Please check the earlier versions of articles in their histories before nominating them VfD. It certainly is still a stub, but it clearly belongs. --Unfocused 18:18, 16 May 2005 (UTC)

I accidentally removed the VfD notice from the article. I'm putting it back.--Unfocused 18:35, 16 May 2005 (UTC)
