Adrian Brown (author)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Biography of a philosopher and author who (if the birth date given is correct) is 107 years old. Written in a facetious tone (e.g. " ...policies including customary beard growth for all, and legalising the shooting of poor people" and " ...became a member of the "Library Gang" alongside Mahatma Ghandi, Oliver Cromwell, and God") and offering no evidence of notability except that he has "with others, penned many books." Possible hoax, but anyway non-notable. JohnCD (talk) 21:57, 1 October 2008 (UTC) Revised nomination: I should have looked at the history. The facetious parts of the article were the work of an IP vandal. I have reverted it to the version before that; but there is still no evidence of notability.
