[edit] Prosper Nicholas Trebeck

Prosper Nicholas Trebeck (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

His only stated claim to notability is having built the first structure in Winchelsea, Victoria, Australia. No proper citations, and one of the "Winchelsea" links is actually to Winchelsea in England. DoorsAjar 08:05, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

  • A bad link is something easily fixed. Editors are human and make mistakes. And I can't seem to find this bad link... -- saberwyn 08:20, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
    • I was trying to point out improper use of citations--this was listed as source material, so the author should've read it. I take your point, though. The incorrect link is to winchelsea.net. DoorsAjar 08:35, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Merge to Winchelsea, Victoria where he is mentioned, possibly significant and worth note in a history/founding section. I can only find one brief book mention through google books and nothing of significant in any online archives. The town's historical association does not mention him. All that we have to write about is the fact of the hotel... not an article by it self - Peripitus (Talk) 10:06, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete WP:NOR - excessive reliance on birth/death/marriage certificates. Trebeck hasn't been the source of multiple independant publications - he is mentioned in passing in History of X by local history assocaiations.Garrie 21:51, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
