[edit] Stefan Roberts

This was a hoax the last time it was created, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Stefan Roberts. It is still not believable, as there is no such child of the Earl of Shaftesbury and his children would not likely be named "Stefan" anyway. Delete. Kusma (討論) 02:46, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

• Delete {{hoax}} Unverifiable, appears to be highly suspicious. Can an entry in Debretts Peerage be cited for this individual?  (aeropagitica)  06:48, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

• Keep I am an expert in British Aristocracy and can confirm that His Excellency is indeed who he says he is. He assumed the title only a few months ago and therefore shall not appear in Debretts. He was named Stefan due to his father studying German at school and College. I would also recommend updating the Earl of Shaftesbury article after the sudden death of Anthony Shaftesbury. johnpallen 21:07, 2 February 2006
  • I see you are new here, welcome! Please back up your claim about the Shaftesburys by citing a reliable source (and note that since you haven't been editing here before, it is hard for us to decide whether you really are an expert in British aristocracy). Thank you, Kusma (討論) 21:19, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
  • And what happened to Nicholas Ashley-Cooper, 12th Earl of Shaftesbury? Isn't he the one with the title? Kusma (討論) 21:23, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
• I am dreadfully sorry, it was his father called Anthony wasn't it, I beg your pardon.
• Indeed, it seems my claimed title of 'expert in British Aristocracy' is not very well deserved as I have, after searching through my newest records found that in fact His Excellency's father is not the Earl of Shaftesbury as I first said. I have, however, found a reference to him in one of the newest books I have on English peerage as Baron Ashley, I must therefore presume that he has assumed this title. Perhaps a better update to the article would be naming Lord Ashley as the Heir Presumptive to Lord Shaftesbury. As for Lord Roberts all information cited I believe is still correct. It was from his mother's side that he inherited the wealth, not actually having anything to do with his title. His Uncle was the person I was thinking of as the 'late' Lord Shaftesbury, when in fact it was the late Lord Jersey that died unfortunately in a car crash a few months ago. My most sincere apologies for causing any confusion.
• Dreadfully sorry, I just remebered I forgot to cite my source. It was Burke's 2006. I get a pre-published version every year.
