[edit] Sean O'Connor

del smells hoax. quick google search for ["Sean O'Connor" + computer engineer + security] shows nothing. History of creation and silly editing by anons suggests that it is a college student prank. mikka (t) 18:11, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete — I was unable to verify any of the content. It does appear to be a hoax. For example, "At the age of only 4, O'Connor designed the phenomenal Double-Back style of guitar playing." — RJH 20:31, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. No evidence to support the tenuous assertions of importance or significance -- zzuuzz (talk) 20:56, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: Can't verify assertions in article, and I've never heard of him in connection /w the computer security or tech journalism fields. — Adrian Lamo ·· 21:14, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Reads like a teenager's vanity page (DOB is listed as 1987), complete with regular vandalism that looks like it comes from other teenagers. Fan1967 23:23, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete: A7. Since nothing I see really seems to assert notability (but he worked at Staples!), I'll go out on a limb and tag it. --Kinu t/c 07:51, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy deleted per above and WP:SNOW. So this guy think he's Steve Gibson, eh? —Ilmari Karonen (talk) 10:25, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
