This appears to be a hoax or fantasy. No Ghits on "Bronte O'Brien" and "Dolly Magazine". Grahame (talk) 03:06, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete This probably qualifies for speedy delete. Dgf32 (talk) 04:37, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Dolly Magazine is a real and popular magazine aimed at young women in Australia, but the lack of Ghits for someone who won a major award at a very young age for writing in major daily papers such as The Australian and Sunday Telegraph strongly suggests that this is either a hoax or that Ms O'Brien doesn't meet Wikipedia's notability requirements. --Nick Dowling (talk) 10:14, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: I wasn't implying that "Dolly Magazine" was a hoax, just that there were no ghits for the 2 in conjunction.--Grahame (talk) 12:25, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Sorry, I miss-read your message - where you had 'and Dolly Magazine' I read as 'or Dolly Magazine'. My mistake. --Nick Dowling (talk) 09:51, 27 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete. There does appear to be an award of this name, but there is no list I can find on their site that has the past winners on it.  Given the above, I'm inclined to agree that this is a hoax.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 04:53, 27 February 2008 (UTC).
 * Delete Seems reasonable for this to be a hoax. Twenty Years 11:24, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
