[edit] Possible NPOV?

"At the age of twelve, Considine had a terrifying supernatural experience by seeing a ghost, this altered the course of his life."

Is it just me or does this seem to say that ghosts are real? I would like to believe in ghosts too, but since we can't verify this event, shouldn't we have an "alleged" or some other such ambiguous term so as not to validate the idea that ghosts are real? --Mr Vain 18:25, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Notability

How is Considine notable? He isn't a published author, not a priest or minister. He's a guy with a web site who performs a service, not unlike an exterminator. --Tex 01:02, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

User:NawlinWiki asserts that the reference to the Discovery Channel establishes notability. I can hardly admit that everyone who has ever been on the Discovery Channel should have a Wikipedia article.

Leaving that aside, usually in Wikipedia a television program is referred to by its title and the date of broadcast. We have neither in this article, only the expectation that such a program will be shown.

What's been going on with this article? The picture was deleted and the article is left with the remains of the picture's captions blowing in the wind. There are three count them three! notices at the top of the page!!! What is up? Why is this article being attacked in this way? Mr. Considine is a notable demonologist in the field. He has appeared in several documetaries and books, he leared his craft from the most noted demonologists in the world the Warrens, he has been the guest on several radio programs including the most popular radio program Coast to Coast. There are only a handful of credible demonologists in the field and Mr. Considine is one of them. Just because you don't have knowledge about him doesn't mean this makes him non-notable. Instead of just slapping notices on the article way don't you do some research and improve it? Dwain 22:16, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
