Elwood Buchanan
This page should be deleted because it has had no additional information added to it since its creation in June 2005. If there is sufficient need for the article in future, I suggest that it be created anew by a user with more time and resources to devote to Mr Buchanan than the originator of the page. As it stands, the page is not a useful entry for an enclyclopædia (aeropagitica) 00:55, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete for the most part nn. At most put a short mention of him in Miles Davis. --Pboyd04 01:00, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge to Miles Davis as stated by Muchness he influence Miles Davis but that is his only point of notability as far as I can tell. --Pboyd04 18:21, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete although agreed with pboyd04. Keep after changes it is an article deserving to stay on Wikipedia.SorryGuy 02:15, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Comment. Well, I've fleshed this out as much as Google will allow. My heart says to keep neglected old jazz musicians, but I'm not sure how much else can be added. Perodicticus 12:13, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * I've now added some more information from books about Davis, and think Buchanan is of sufficient interest to keep. Failing that, merge with Miles Davis, as his contribution to Davis's style was considerable. Perodicticus 18:26, 29 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep, post Perodicticus expansion. Well-written article, subject is notable as influence on Miles Davis. --Muchness 13:05, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep per above Jcuk 14:52, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep as above. Evil Eye 16:43, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep Perodicticus has done a lot of work to this page in the last 24 hours, so I believe that it now deserves to be retained as it stands (aeropagitica) 18:26, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete and merge. The bulk of this stub is the association with Miles Davis - so that's where this should go. Ifnord 23:58, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. --Revolución (talk) 00:13, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
