[edit] Abbey of Kells

Keep the rewrite. This is a hoax. There was an Abbey of Kells, but this article is about a non-existent baseball player, not the medieval monastery. The article was created on June 16, 2005, the same day that the Book of Kells was the FA on the Main Page. "Abbey of Kells" was a red link from that page. Google search for "Abbey of Kells" + tigers, turns up no relevent hits. Dsmdgold 03:56, July 12, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete hoax, and even if it was true Wikipedia is not a memorial. JamesBurns 08:32, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Have rewritten the article so that it refers to the Abbey not the bogus baseball player. It is a significant site due to the Book of Kells and St Columba's shrine was also moved there but was destroyed in Viking raids. Capitalistroadster 09:52, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep the rewrite. Good save, Capitalistroadster! Grutness...wha? 10:30, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - the rewrite seems more reasonable. gren 11:48, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
