Contested prod. Pretty obvious (if commendably creative) hoax, though I'm not sure whether it's obvious enough to be G3-eligible, so I opted for the Prod/AFD route. Steve Smith (talk) 07:12, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
 * I'd additionally call attention to the fact that the article's sole source was authored by a person with the same name as the article's creator; the subject doesn't pan out with any other sources. And even if we do grant the benefit of the doubt here, the article still fails to demonstrate any actual notability. Delete as a hoax, or delete as a non-notable biography...but either way, delete.

 * Delete. I didn't check whether this is a hoax or not, but the man is definitely not notable despite having given environmentalism a bad name. --  Blanchardb - Me•MyEars•MyMouth - timed 13:56, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - almost certainly a bit of leg-pulling, and there are no reliable sources in any case. -- Scjessey (talk) 20:05, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
