Padraic Stevens
Delete I'm from this part of the world. It's nonsense. --PhilipO 01:50, August 27, 2005 (UTC)
 * Hoax. Padraig Stevens is actually a member of the Saw Doctors, per Google.  Edit: redirect per Rob Church. Quicksandish 02:26, August 27, 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Padraig Stevens as a mis-spelling of that person's name. Rob Church Talk 02:41, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Either a hoax or a misspelling, and in the latter case it is wrong. Groeck 04:15, 27 August 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. I apologise for my bluntness, but, come on! This is not even a convincing hoax. Yes, there is such a person as Padraig Stevens. But this guy is not him. Padraig Stevens is a Saw Doctor. How could a member of the Saw Doctors, a hugely popular band in Ireland (and fairly popular in the ex-patriate community over here) still be playing after apparently committing so many murders? How could this (hoaxed) person who hates the Saw doctors actually be a part of them? I very frequently read the Irish newspapers, and, believe me, if there were a serial killer slaughtering fans of the Saw Doctors, it would be huge news. In any circumstance, a serial killer would be on the front pages for more than a week, specifically if it were such an interesting case such as 'this one.' There would also be huge documentation online of it. Take it from me, there have not been many mass murderers in Ireland; if this guy were amongst them, he would be incredibly notable. But there is no such killer. I don't see why you should redirect this to Padraig Stevens. Sure, there should be a Padraig Stevens page, perhaps, but one about the Saw Doctors member. Making one out of this hoax is utter stupidity. IINAG 18:09, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
