[edit] Rene Quinton
snake oil advertising and non-verifiable ZayZayEM 14:29, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Came here via Deep Sea News. This page is very suss and likely just blatant advertising for snake oil type hackery. Rene Quinton might be a real figure of notability, which is why I'm giving this the benefit of a VFD not a a speedy.--ZayZayEM 14:23, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

- Delete To quote [1] I emailed a research librarian, adept if finding everything and anything, to find more information about Quinton, without using the net. Here is what he writes back... "He's not listed in the Biography and Genealogy Master Index, which indexes the standard biographical sources. Quinton published a couple of books, Maximes sur la guerre which has been translated into English as Soldier's testament: selected maxims of Rene Quinton [he is supposed to have died from war wound], L'eau de mer, milieu organique: constance du milieu originel, comme milieu vital des cellules a travers la serie animale and L'eau de mer en injections isotoniques sous-cutanees en pavillon des debiles de la maternite; the last two apparently have not been translated. None is particularly common. There's also what appears to be a biographpy, Rene Quinton: origines marines de la vie, lois de constance originelles. I found one article, Loi generale de constance originelle du milieu vital des cellules in Revue des idees, 1904." Nice bit of research proving him non-notable.
