Carson Gulley
Nice try, but I don't think he's notable. Deb 23:25, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Hey, he's got a building named after him, is credited with introducing the signature pie of the University of Wisconsin Madison, and George Washington Carver called him an artist. He's certainly notable in Madison, Wisconsin, and researchers using the Wikipedia should be able to find a little something about him. Rabbet 17:37, 11 March 2006 (CST)

 * Keep, as per Rabbet. He's the only African-American to have a building named after him at UW Madison; he's been discussed in the Wisconsin State Journal and the Madison Magazine; he's a published author; he led the Madison branch of the NAACP; the article is properly referenced, and being "notable in Madison, Wisconsin" - a city of over 200,000 people - is plenty good enough for me. --OpenToppedBus - Talk to the driver 11:55, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
 * For me, it's still borderline. I'd want to know what other Americans think before I'd change my vote. Deb 12:47, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I agree with Deb. It is still pretty borderline. --Khoikhoi 23:54, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
