Fails to meet notability guidelines for people; also, vanity article concerns, evidenced by the fact that the subject created this article himself as a response to the creation of another article (https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1881436689414323085&postID=8415230829757651102&pli=1). Regardless of whether Those Aren't Muskets think "they're f***ing bigshots!?!", informing Fox of exactly how many "dicks they should eat" (http://www.cracked.com/blog/fox-can-eat-several-dicks/) doesn't justify using Wikipedia as the track for your "race to the top of glorious Mount Fame".( 123fakestreet (talk) 06:51, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

This is Dan O'Brien. In response to the above: Kudos to your research, but I assure you that I didn't create this Wikipedia entry, (though I'm flattered and psyched that it exists). I'm sure there's a way to check who DID create it, and once you do check, you'll see it wasn't me. I think we can all get to the bottom of this mystery together. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.171.38.166 (talk) 09:39, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete - While there are some references to "Daniel O'Brien" in reliable sources, it looks like none of them refer to this individual. Notability cannot be established.  LinguistAtLarge &bull; Msg  19:21, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
