Cap'n Brownhand
Hoax Rhialto 12:56, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

I believe the article to be a hoax. As I noted on the article's talk page:

"Anyone else think this is a hoax article? No google hits beyond the wikipedia mirrors, and no less than three puns within the article body too. The original maker of this article has only ever contributed to this article, and his user name is the same as this article." Delete. Definite hoax. Emeraude 14:45, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
 * This sentence has been in the article from the beginning: "Given his Spanish crew pronounced “j” as an “f”, Mutajucher preferred the nickname of Cap’n Brownhand." Hoax. Delete. Skarioffszky 15:00, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Brought up almost entirely on sauerkraut, and the constant gas from it was a great motivator in his life? Obviously a hoax, but could also be speedied under db-bio. wikipediatrix 16:46, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
