Duke of Ballensworth

 * — (View AfD)

I can find no evidence of a person named the 'Duke of Ballensworth' or a place called Ballensworth in Cambridgeshire. The title does not appear in The Complete Peerage. Verica Atrebatum 10:22, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as failing WP:V. (This article is a duplicate of Ballensworth, Duke of, which has its own AfD at Articles for deletion/Ballensworth, Duke of). Demiurge 12:43, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment Hoax is not a qualification for a speedy delete, see WP:CSD for details. (aeropagitica) 15:00, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, but once the fake references and nobility title is stripped from this, it fails WP:BIO pretty miserably. Also, joke articles are vandalism, which is speediable, too. Tubezone 23:34, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
