Non-notable musician. I cannot find any references that his song Carolina Lady ever made the Billboard Hot 100. [1] In the first AfD nomination, the Billboard assertion was removed so it was speedily deleted. I'd like to either have someone find references or have this settled through the AfD process.

- Delete with extreme prejudice, and salt This keeps being re-created and the guy is just plain not notable. Continual re-creation is tantamount to vandalism. It's been deleted three times now. No references and not reference-able from WP:RS. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 05:53, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete The date of closing of the previous deletion discussion is 8 March 2010. The result was "delete" as {{A7}}. I think the {{g4}} is appropriate now. --Vejvančický (talk) 12:50, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy delete G4. Otherwise, delete for non-notability and unverifiability of the claim to have a charted hit. Glenfarclas (talk) 18:03, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Whatever the final deletion reason, I just hope it gets salted WP:SALT. I cannot find sources that would make this person notable and the seemingly false Billboard claim makes the speedy deletes get declined. Clubmarx (talk) 18:29, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I marked this for speedy delete as {{A7}} which I believe was correct as there is no notability. TeapotgeorgeTalk 18:56, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as hoax. A7 is not applicable here, but neither Allmusic nor Whitburn's Hot 100 book have a listing for Salter, which is pretty damning as far as charting the Hot 100. Looks to me like the author of the page is trying to fake his way into the history books. Chubbles (talk) 04:53, 15 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
