[edit] Alex McKinnon

Searching for '"alex mckinnon" agincourt' [1] comes up with 4 results. 2 of them are this article, 2 aren't about him. This looks like a hoax to me. Cherry blossom tree 15:14, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. Non-verified; either a hoax or someone's delusions of grandeur. Bucketsofg ✐ 15:19, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I think this is actually supposed to be a joke, i.e. "Proceeds are given to the needy, preferably someone blind." Delete either way. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 15:26, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as per nom. Dlyons493 Talk 15:36, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. He may actually exist [2] (see the last paragraph), but I don't think freewebs counts as a reliable source. Any way seems to not reach WP:BIO no mater the notable pedigree. Clams to notability are, 1. The founder of an international society that can not be verified for its existence or notability. 2. The inventor of a economic principle which also can not be verified for its existence or notability, and is the basis of a book that is not named and may not exist (unpublished?).--blue520 15:54, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I don't see anything glaringly notable. Bige1977 16:51, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom. -- ReyBrujo 07:38, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Nothing notable and certainly some parts that seem like either a prank or vanity entry (or, both). Ted 15:18, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, per non and Bucketsofg. --soUmyaSch 15:19, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Per Nom. --Holy Cows 22:02, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
• KEEP. I know Alex McKinnon personally and I can testify that the Agincourt Society not only exists but is holding its next formal dinner at Raffles, Singapore later this month. Mr McKinnon's personal details are all correct. As for doubts raised in relation to charitable donations, the author should be ashamed of himself.
