[edit] Robert E. McElwaine
Notability, verifiability, etc. There is no evidence of any of that in this article, individual (if it is even him) also fails WP:BIO. Crossmr 14:31, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete reluctantly, fails WP:BIO, WP:ATT, etc. There have been blurbs in defunct dot-com era magazines like Yahoo! Internet Life, I know, but those aren't in the back of my closet anymore. Leave this one for cranks.net and perhaps ED, should someone wish to adopt it. -- Dhartung | Talk 10:25, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. I'm with Dhartung. It's a sad day, the veritable end of an era, when Robert "UN-altered REPRODUCTION and DISSEMINATION of this IMPORTANT Information is ENCOURAGED" McElwaine is banished from the pages of Wikipedia. The other wiki, or Uncyclopedia, should take this and run with it. When was the United States born? NOVEMBER 15, 1777, of course. This is essentially unattributable. On the assumption that Mr McElwaine is alive and well, we definitely can't have an article on him without something better than usenet posts to hang it off.
