[edit] Magnus Vaughan

"Magnus Vaughan" is not notable or does not exist (no google hits). Reads like a joke page, anyway. Sandstein 20:21, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

I do exist. I am 25 and I do live in Slough. I'm glad you think that because my life contains humour, it must be a joke, I cannot be googled, vis a vis I do not exist. You need to leave the house more. Magnus Vaughan

See http://www.hillingdontimes.co.uk/archive/display.var.522217.0.horses_for_courses.php for an example of Magnus' powerful work

• Mr. Vaughan, please excuse my suspended belief in your existence. Even so, existence does not constitute notability, and neither does a single newspaper article, powerful as it may be. Please note that vanity pages, even those intended to be humorous, are not allowed on Wikipedia. Sandstein 20:49, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

Comment for those unfamiliar with North and West London and environs: if that was The Times, possibly. If the Hillingdon Times is anything like my local paper from the same group, the Finchley Times, it's a free weekly paper. Nothing wrong with that, but not a very good guide of international or even national notability. Delete joke article. Tonywalton 20:47, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

• I would have nominated this for a speedy delete. Al 21:09, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Writing an article for a local newspaper does not make you notable. Average Earthman 21:52, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
