Delete as probable hoax. Article creator has made several attempts to insert subject as actor in contemporary television programs. Google search on name only brings up this article and references to a student by this name from Sydney Boys High School, coincidentally an article that this article's creator has also edited to include unnecessary info. PROD tag removed by possible SPA (very low edit count), with the reasoning I removed the deletion proposition because the book "Australians through the ages" by Sam Courrier, published 1963, John Wiley & Sons, names Bastable as one of the 19th century's most prolific writers - However, Google searches on "Sam Courrier" or "Australians through the ages" bring up no matching references, nor does a search on the claimed publisher's website.

- Delete non notable author. If his book was as renowned as the article claims, why is not mentioned anywhere else? --Cyrus Andiron 15:44, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
