Insofar as the article isn't incomplete original research, it appears to be based on anything but reliable sources. No doubt there's an encyclopedia article to be written on the claimed genealogies of Anglo-Saxon kings, and what those claims tell us - the Blackwell Encyclopedia of Anglo-Saxon England has an article on Genealogies, Royal - but this isn't it nor does it contain any useful material for such an article. Apart from WP:NOR and WP:V issues, there's also no primary sources to consider. I suggest to delete but do not protect against recreation as this is a valid headword.

- Delete without prejudice to sourced recreation per nom. On closer inspection, this looks rather like someone's WP:OR synthesis or copyvio of a book that appears to be widely considered to be pseudoscience. Sandstein 21:06, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. The article was created by Wilmer T who was very early on WP, but was pushed away by more serious users, due to his knack for original research.--Berig 16:11, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
