[edit] Flahive

Flahive (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

I think this is a hoax. There are no Google hits or Google Scholar hits. I highly doubt someone living in Britian as recently as the 1800s would have been the first parlimentarian with red hair. Red hair is fairly common in that part of the world. Also, the article's creator User:ChaseProcknow, has been creating other vandalism articles. I could go on, but I won't. The only reason I'm AFDing this instead of marking it for speedy is it doesn't meet any of the speedy criteria. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 17:05, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Speedy delete obvious nonsense. Seventypercent 17:44, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete - (1) Delete per nomination and since the article does not meet Wikipedia:Notability. (2) Speedy delete since likely the article is a hoax and the subtle references to red hair and listing a "wife's" name probably designed to particularly identify "Flahive" so as to be the target of the libelous statements in the article (which I just removed). -- Jreferee 17:45, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete nonsensical hoax. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 18:11, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete. Balant hoax and vandalism from an indefinitely blocked user. The red hair reference simply exists to parody red haired people. Michaelas10 (Talk) 22:07, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
