[edit] Mick Love
An article on this individual has previously been deleted by AfD under the name "Michael Love", see here. However, based on comments on the creator's talk page, I believe the content may be significantly different. While his career as a member of the Old IRA and a soldier in the Irish Army seems to have been interesting, I don't seen any evidence of him being particularly notable. The biggest claim to fame is his involvement in the Easter Rising. A google search for "Michael Love" "Easter Rising"[1] only turns up two comments on message boards and there is no evidence given that he was a significant figure on the republican side in 1916. Anyway, fails WP:BIO. -- IslaySolomon | talk 15:38, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete per nom, violates WP:NOT#IINFO. The ONLY G-hit referencing this fellow is the Twelve Apostles Wikipedia article, and his name doesn't show up in the excellent and comprehensive history of the time written by Seumas MacManus. RGTraynor 16:43, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, the content is pretty much identical to that of Michael Love (AfD discussion) and was created by the same editor. Uncle G 18:54, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
- Ah well, in that case I'll tag it {{db-repost}}. -- IslaySolomon | talk 03:33, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
