Christopher Langford

 * – ( View AfD View log )

No source found that there is or was an English architect named Christopher Langford. No source found that there are famous Hipped Saltbox houses, which the article claims he invented (although hipped saltbox buildings may exist). Of the article creator’s four total edits on Wikipedia, the final edit was “Randy made this guy up”, supporting a belief that this is a 3 1/2-year-old hoax. Even if true, the article fails the core policy of verifiability. Michael Devore (talk) 21:44, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Nothing in Gbooks with his name and "saltbox". Most web hits are mirrors of WP or about other people. I'll change my mind if someone provided reliable sources.--Dmol (talk) 22:23, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment Surprisingly, "hipped saltbox" houses do exist: see here for example. But Newfoundland is some way from Wisconsin.  Sergeant Cribb (talk) 06:42, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - Possibly a hoax but definitely fails to satisy venerability. -- Whpq (talk) 19:36, 3 May 2011 (UTC)
