Talk:Henchard

Hoax
THIS ITEM IS A SPOOF ENTRY. With the exception of the reference to The Mayor of Casterbridge it is entirely fictional (so is the Mayor of Casterbridge, come to think of it). Items like this, whilst superficially amusing, are a BAD THING. Firstly, they tend to spread and become accepted as factual (this item has already done so); and secondly, they damage the integrity of the information on Wikipedia itself. -	Simon Walker Editor, Hitchin Journal Hitchin Historical Society
