The result of the debate was delete. Please be cautious when casting "joke" votes like the merge-vote here, the sarcasm rarely shines through as well to the AFD closer as it does to you, and may suddenly wind up having undesirable consequences. Sjakkalle (Check!)  08:31, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

Daniel Harloe
Fiction - the only full google hit was a student ballplayer. The anon index.php?title=Special:Contributions&target=203.59.111.226 has also created other nonsense pages Vsmith 11:19, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
 * True - there are two google hits for dan harloe, one, a student ballplayer, and the other is for the ancient mathematician and scientist described in the article. (added by User:202.72.148.102)
 * No, when the search is "Daniel Harloe" there is but one - from Scotch College Junior School, AUSTRALIA. Vsmith 17:01, 6 September 2005 (UTC)


 * Delete. Real subject may (or may not) be worthy of an article, but version as written is just fiction.  --Alan Au 16:35, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, near certain hoax. - choster 19:49, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Merge to null as per WP:FICT. ;-)  &mdash;RaD Man (talk) 07:26, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as transparent hoax by some bored schoolchild. Vsmith, I can't find the Google hit you think you saw.  I am a mathematician and I've never heard of this alleged person.  I just checked the well known history of mathematics by Boyer and no Harloe is listed there.---CH  (talk) 02:31, 12 September 2005 (UTC)
