[edit] Cathal O'Connell

Looks like a vanity/non-notable article - the two most prominent Hibernian Insurance companies on the internet don't mention this person as anyone in their management team -- Aim Here 00:36, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Probable hoax, I'd expect the company to be [1] and, while that is the Management Team rather than the Board, it's highly implausible that a thirtysomething year-old would chair the board. Also Cathal is a masculine name. Dlyons493 Talk 01:35, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete per above. --Aaron 01:40, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, asserts notability, even if implausible. Not speedyable. Adrian Lamo · (talk) · (mail) · 02:58, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

• Delete this embarassing vanity ++Deiz 03:31, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete as non-notable bio. I have tagged the article 'db-bio' James084 03:44, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. I did find a mention of a "Cathal O'Connell" in Dublin in the August 26, 2000 issue of The Guardian (see page 16). Unfortunately for this article, the person is described only as "a late morning drinker at Dowlings' Bar." Crypticfirefly 04:57, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
