Subject is non-notable and not listed in reference given. Possible hoax.
The same editor who created the article uploaded three images on Commons as the same man. None of them match. One is an image of Ulric Dahlgren (File:UlricDahlgren.jpg) where the user merely took the image from here and uploaded it with the new name. He created the article with the clearly-named Dahlgren photo before uploading his renamed version File:Col.William Arthur Brenchley.jpg without citing source. Another version is File:William Arthur Brenchley.jpg. His newest upload is for File:William Arthur Brenchley 1863.jpg.
I'm trying to determine if the article is a hoax. I haven't found anything on the article subject and he doesn't appear to be in the reference cited. ⋙–Berean–Hunter—► 02:06, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
