[edit] Hamish mckenzie

Delete; hoax, joke, whatever. No Google mentions of such a person or film, and description makes it clear it's a joke, and a sophomoric one at that. MCB 05:39, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete This is what we need this template for: {{db|hoax}}. With all those bananas, sounds like monkey business. WCFrancis 07:05, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
    • The problem with {{db|hoax}} is that, very very rarely, the nominator is wrong (case in point, Joseph Ivor Linton). In order for such articles to last long enough to be rescued, the annoyingly blatant ones have to be given a chance too. If even 1% of speedy {{hoax}} nominations are mistaken, that's still too much. (Besides, {{hoax}} would have meant that we'd have missed out on the wonderful debate for Trigger and Jim.) That said, I once more sound the hoax alarm, and urge that Hamish mckenzie be swiftly deleted. DS 13:58, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

You're right, there isn't anything about McKenzie on Wikipedia, movies or not... Wow. He's quite big in New Zealand, but not a "media celebrity" ... The profile is certainly 'blown out of proportion', but not a complete hoax.

  • The article should be gone by lunchtime.--210.86.70.47 23:40, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
