Earl Carter[edit]
Non-notable musician, fails WP:MUSIC with no significant secondary source coverage. Redfarmer (talk) 02:20, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete A check of All Music Guide shows that his two albums were self released. No proof can be found that he played for any other notable musicians; otherwise I might !vote for a weak keep. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 02:29, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Is this Buddy Carter's real name? I'm confused. Redfarmer (talk) 14:22, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes. This biography lists his name as Earl L. 'Buddy' Carter: [2] Terraxos (talk) 02:17, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Buddy Carter is William (son of Jimmy Carter), according to the article. Or is there a Jazz Buddy Carter I'm unaware of? Totnesmartin (talk) 14:46, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The Buddy Carter article was originally about "William Carter", but was altered to be about "Earl Carter", and the redirect was then created by a bot. The article subject has since been changed back to William Carter. If the Earl Carter article is deleted, it should not be reverted back to a redirect. jwillbur 01:04, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Turn back into a redirect per Mgiganteus1 above. The musician does not appear to be notable, but the redirect is worth keeping as the real name of a (somewhat) notable person. Terraxos (talk) 02:17, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
