[edit] A Sean

Seems completely untrue. A search for the supposed inventor of this unit of measurement turns up merely one hit on Google. --Spring Rubber 22:21, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Not only is this pointless from my point of view (as a physicist and mathematician), the author of the article changed the vote of the above user to say it was true... thus the article loses all credibility. See The sean equation. Deskana 22:44, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete - By the way, I didn't think we preformed a lot of measurements in the mathematical world? Bergsten 23:29, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
  • You're right... and the natural unit for angles is radians, this article says "Of course the standard measurement for angles is degrees"... sounds like a big hoax to me! Deskana 23:37, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Completely unverifiable, probably a hoax. ManoaChild 00:02, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - and stop vandalizing this afd. Rhobite 01:49, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Comment - I've seen Afds vandalized before, but never have I seen someone so persistent as to create multiple sockpuppet accounts, even ones similar in name to the original (no suspicion raised there!), just to vandalize an Afd nomination for his or her own joke article. I guess I'll just take that as an honor in a strange sort of way. --Spring Rubber 02:51, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Comment - They're even adding new prose to the original article. However, both the original author and the other author signed the end of their article... it's obvious that its the same author trying to get their lies kept on Wikipedia. Deskana 09:31, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete — Is a Sean supposed to be the 2nd degree? Hoax. — RJH 16:55, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, a hoax, I am guessing. Stifle 20:40, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as rubbish. Jasmol 00:04, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete hoax. Cool3 00:31, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, hoax. Mushroom 01:33, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as part of a pattern of "Sean" hoaxes: cf [1]. -- JimR 06:26, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Obvious hoax; not even very funny alas. Bill 17:33, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete hoax and vandalized Afd.--a.n.o.n.y.m ^t 17:35, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
