  • Uhh, allowing redirects from encyclopedia to user space got deprecated couple years ago. We still have few left for (dubious) backwards compatibility reasons but any new ones should absolutely not be created. If he is not notable, then he has no business being referenced in our encyclopedia, even by just a single link. jni 17:20, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

good point  J\/\/estbrook   Talk  VSCA    20:45, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

• Comment has anyone actually checked to see if his claims can be verified? or put anything on his userpage to ask if he's aware that we dont encourage autobiographical articles? Jcuk 19:42, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
