[edit] Jacob MacPherson

Unreferenced and I'm fairly certain completely spurious: Google for Jacob MacPherson and murder yields zero hits. Created by Marxus, the same user who created James McPherson (novelist), nominated above (Jacob is supposedly James's father, and each article contains a link to the other). It looks like it might be a good idea to vet every edit by Marxus, and also perhaps Ccaravello, who has contributed to several of the same pages. ShelfSkewed talk 16:42, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. You beat me to it. I think Marxus (talk · contribs), Ccaravello (talk · contribs), and several IP addresses that have edited both articles heavily may be the same person. Other suspect articles are Russell McPherson and James McPherson II, which are nearly identical. jwillbur^talk 17:01, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Nominated both Russell and James II for deletion below. jwillbur^talk 17:52, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per the nomination. No sources. Cheers, Lankybugger ○ Yell ○ 20:18, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

  This author ( Marxus (talk · contribs) ) has recently created a flurry of unreferenced articles such as Stanley Lane and Harold F. Boice about NN WW-I veterans listed in Veterans of the First World War who died in 2005, many of which were redlinked just a few days ago ... some admin should take a closer look at their edit history. —68.239.79.97 (talk · contribs) 21:34, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
