[edit] Dan Coupland

This person was born in the 4th century and is still alive, aparently. Total nonsense, but not patent nonsense unfortunately, so it must be listed here. David Johnson [T|C] 12:42, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. Also, the only way he can be killed is if you cut of his head. -- 8^D ^gab 12:53, 2005 Apr 22 (UTC)

• Delete. Complete nonsense. BrendanH 12:58, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, and IMHO, you would have been right to speedy. If an article's claims are obviously untrue (a 4th century guy living for thousands of years) it falls under patent nonsense. Meelar (talk) 13:05, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Useless. --WalkinDownThirtyThree 18:14, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• SPEEDY Delete, the crown of all weirdness. I don't know if this is based of a legend, but come on, that makes him even older than Methuselah, the oldest recorded character EVER! "Hoaxes", "fictional story material"... this falls under both. Let's speedy-ise it (oh look, a new neologism!) Master Thief Garrett 22:42, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• UPDATE: Oh my, look what Google found! Someone's added some joke bio page to Wiki. And it's been plagarised from there. Even worse. Come on, it's a joke, a speedy delee for sure. Master Thief Garrett 22:44, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

• I've speedied this piece of gibberish. It's utter bullshit -- and though the rules don't necessarily allow for the speedy deletion of utter bullshit, this is utter enough bullshit to register on my synapses on patent nonsense too. --jpgordon∇∆∇∆ 00:17, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
