Guillaume Buckley
Completely a hoax. Australia didn't win the Confederations Cup in 2005 FIFA_Confederations_Cup. He's not on the Australia World Cup roster. There's more that I could research but I'll just point to the fact that the article's creator is named User:Buckwit.

 * Delete as WP:HOAX David <span
 * Delete it bothers me that articles as blatantly hoaxy as this can't be speedied; so, even though it's filled with lies, because it does "assert" notability, it has to go through this process. Anyway, this isn't the place for that. Hopefully this'll be got rid of as quickly as possible, though - blatant lies such as this compromise the integrity of Wikipedia. And he's never been near Liverpool FC either, I can tell you that much. Seb Patrick 14:05, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete This is more damaging to Wikipedia than someone banging their head on the keyboard and calling it an article. I'd call it patent nonsense for out and out lies, because there's no salvaging this pile of dung. --DarkAudit 14:17, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete per nom. Obvious hoax.  Theoretically, this sort of thing _can_ be G3'd, if anyone wants to give it a go... Tevildo 15:18, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete. The name of the character seems to be a Frenchified version of William Buckley (convict), or perhaps William F. Buckley, Jr..  Smerdis of Tlön 16:31, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
