[edit] Darragh Connaughton

Delete as hoax. Google gives barely any hits on "Darragh Connaughton Athleague", plus it's unlikely that someone could be successful in so many sports. See also Enda Mc Elduff, created by the same IP. Sam Vimes 17:32, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete as per nom. Darragh Connaughton is a famous Irish soccer, rugby, darts, tennis, snooker, hurling and cricket player Oh no, he's not! Dlyons493 Talk 18:17, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete and Comment; before deleting, I suggest tracking Special:Whatlinkshere/Darragh Connaughton. squell 18:21, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep Darragh Connaughton does seem to be a famous sportsman, possibly just because of the large number of sports he is involved in rather than his quality. The acticles and entries relating to Enda Mc Elduff seem to be vantalism however. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.203.143.89 (talk • contribs)
    • 23 hits on Google. IP similar to the creator of the both articles under deletion. squell 23:41, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. It seems that he's completely an invention, seeing as close to every hit on google is wikipedia, or a mirror. And I don't know if Athleague even has mayors... Modular 23:46, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
    • Some Irish towns do - I don't think Athleague has but it'd require going into meatspace to confirm. Dlyons493 Talk 01:36, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as per above. Also, can someone assess how much of the Athleague article is a hoax? Stephen Turner 07:22, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
    • I've removed everything that can't be verified on the Net. I know the River Suck sounds implausible but truth is stranger than fiction. Dlyons493 Talk 19:41, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete It is probably the name of the person who started the article, a POV autobiography of himself. DaGizza Chat (c) 08:56, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep As per the deletion policy this page cannot be deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.203.140.171 (talk • contribs)
  • Another unsigned vote from the 193.203.14[0-5].* block of addresses that wrote the article. And I think you'll probably discover that it can be deleted. :-) Stephen Turner 16:43, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete or Edit for POV The article is definately not neutral. If this guy really does exist, someone needs to edit the article. Kerowyn 03:24, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as unverifiable — all net.roads lead back to Wikipedia. --Kgf0 23:33, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
