[edit] Potato queen

Even if this person exists, the article contains enough falsehoods and factual errors to warrant deletion - Tenerife as a graduation present? The UK coming in to being in 1995? -- (aeropagitica)  20:35, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete nonsense. WhiteNight ^{T | @ | C} 21:18, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
• No Google hits for "rebecca coyle" "potato queen" [1]. Speedy delete as patent nonsense, and as a second choice, delete as unverifiable. --Metropolitan90 21:21, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as patent nonsense. I tried speedy tagging it, but I'll just wait the five days. I think we need to loosen up the definition of {{db-nonsense}} a bit, to cover stuff like this. There does seem to be real Rebecca Coyle, who's a published author, but that's obviously unrelated to this sillieness. --Rob 21:26, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Past experience has taught that two editors are not enough to determine whether something is nonsense. Determining that something is patent nonsense can be done on sight, in contrast. Uncle G 22:16, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete (speedy if possible, but I guess from Thivierr above, it's not). At best a joke.—Stombs 22:13, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
• It's not patent nonsense, because it is comprehensible. It's just a joke article, aimed at some woman called Rebecca Coyle and full of what are clearly in-jokes. This is in no way an attempt at a real encyclopaedia article. I'm going to speedily delete this, not as patent nonsense but as silly vandalism, CSD #G3. Uncle G 22:16, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Further note: This article mentions Nick Varey as Rebecca Coyle's boyfriend. That is almost certainly Vareynick (talk · contribs), the article's creator. I have speedily deleted The great chicken depression, another joke article from this author. Uncle G 22:24, 1 January 2006 (UTC)
