William Shears
Blatant hoax. "William Shears" + Beatles gets 0 google hits. As the article calls him, a "fictional" look alike. Scimitar 16:00, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete laughable hoax. --Adun 16:49, Jun 16, 2005 (UTC)
 * Umm... what? Delete. Move to BJAODN. --WikiFan04ß 11:52, 16 Jun 2005 (CDT)
 * Merge and Redirect to Billy Shears, This does appear to be related to the "Paul is dead" hoax/conspiracy -- pcrtalk 17:24, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * On second thought, redirect to William Campbell, but no merge, since this article already has this information, written in a much better manner. --Scimitar 19:13, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Watch me be bold and do it myself. I now wish to close the nom., but I don't know how. --Scimitar 20:54, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
