[edit] Roy Patrick O'Duggan
I suspect this is a hoax. No references are given and the article was created by a new account who created several similar articles. I could be wrong, but I can't find any ghits to back it up. It was originally prodded, and then de-prodded by an anon-ip who is I suspect the original author Megapixie 04:07, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, no Ghits on any variation of his name, and no sources provided. Notability cannot be proven or even asserted. Additionally, there are some hints of POV as well. -- H·G (words/works) 04:34, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Away with the hoaxy crap. -- Captain Disdain 05:42, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

- Delete this is an obvious hoax. I have heard of a number of Irish republican splinter groups, but not the Irish Liberation Front. If any Irish republican group had lost 35 members in one day it would surely have hit the headlines and I would have heard about it. When, in 1987, the Provisional IRA East Tyrone Brigade really did lose eight members in one go in the Loughgall ambush it was a major incident which hit the headlines.

- Delete per nom, editor who created the articles is aware of the nomination for deletion (and removed AfD tags from the articles) so if nomination is incorrect he is welcome to speak up here. Google on "Irish Liberation Front" in quotes only points to a cafepress.com site selling materials related to a myspace userpage, and a spoof site of 60 minutes (and Wikipedia). Strongly suspect hoax. Neil916 00:03, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
- Speedy delete per G3 and A7 There is an IRA, but there is no ILF. Speedyable as vandalism and non-notable bio. Jesse Viviano 02:30, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
