Cortez peters
probable hoax Delete carmeld1 14:53, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete or speedy as prank/vandalism. What is "keyboarding?"  Is that like water boarding or is it like what Rick Wakeman did or is it typing?  (Yes, I know they mean the latter, but I hate all this verbing going on.) Geogre 15:25, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * delete. although I've seen Rick Wakeman keyboard, if you're going to get arsey about grammar perhaps you should learn that former and latter only apply when there are two alternatives; first, second and last must apply when there are three.  Dunc|&#9786; 16:40, 1 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * We need to inform the Mormons in a hurry, then, that there are only two days to choose from! (And verbing is still a crime if there is no need for it to happen. Laziness is not need.) Geogre 14:56, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Google to find -, , , , , and about 1,765 other hits. For once, Geogre's Law doesn't work. This isn't a hoax, nor is it a prank or vandalism.  Note that keyboarding is a redirect to typing, which is what is meant by the article. Keep but cleanup. -- Jonel 03:33, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC) (comment modified by Jonel 22:19, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC))
 * Keep; the late Cortez Peters did indeed set a record for typing speed. In fact, I used a book with his name in the title in a keyboarding class I took. HollyAm 04:50, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)
