Lord Leicester[edit]

Suspected self-promotion - the article originated from Florida, the subject has connections with Florida. The subject is a non-notable person (who works in public relations), and there is no evidence that he's entitled to the title "Lord Leicester" (see the article's talk page for discussion of this). ajn (talk) 08:17, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Barons are notable. Obscure hoaxes are not notable. Given that the preponderance of evidence suggests that this article is the latter, I have no hesitation in ordering it hanged, drawn, and deleted. — Haeleth Talk 17:55, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Notice the disambiguation at the top of the article. Research reveals that the Earl of Leicester is known as Lord Leicester. Therefore merge (only) the disambiguation to Earl of Leicester and redirect there. Uncle G 19:56, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
