[edit] About Irby Simpkins

A columnist under the nom de plume "The Fabricator" claimed that Wikipedia had an article about one "Irby Simpkins". This is the only article I could find that mentioned Simpkins.

I know one shouldn't believe everything on the Internet, but I would think the website of a dead-tree publication with a paid staff made a more detemined effort to get facts right than a bunch of amateurs. -- llywrch 06:24, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

The fabricator story is entirely fictional. Kaldari 15:03, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
