I am NOT the author of The Polyester Prince, so please don’t write me about it! It was written by an Australian journalist whose last name is McDonald, M-C. Mine is spelled M-A-C. So, no, I can’t help you find him or his out-of-print book. Good luck! ) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nagendrapsingh (talk • contribs) 22:06, 26 October 2008 (UTC)


 * It should be moved from Hamish MacDonald to Hamish McDonald, with all of its edit history intact, as soon as Hamish McDonald is deleted.

 * There are three people being conflated here. The Article is correctly located as a biography of the Australian born, Al Jazeera journalist Hamish MacDonald, but a second biography page (and disambiguation) might be useful to identify the novelist and indie publisher Hamish MacDonald whose website is referenced above, meanwhile the redirect at Hamish McDonald is misleading since there is a third individual, also Australian born, and also a writer - the author of the Polyester Prince mentioned in the Age article linked above. If nobody has any objections I'm going to begin untangling this mess by building a disambiguation page. Splateagle (talk) 16:13, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
