Marcus Hollingshead

This garage-built Gravitational Lensing Generator is obviously complete WP:BOLLOCKS. But as we all know, that alone is no reason for deletion.

So I plead: No reliable third-party sources!

Let's dissect the sources (actually external links only) given

• 2x http://www.americanantigravity.com/
• 1x OhmyNews, the first of its kind [online newspaper] in the world to accept, edit and publish articles from its readers, in an open source style of news reporting
• 1x the (in)famous Tajmar preprint, its merit being heavily disputed (Is it accepted for publication? Does a link to the ESA exist or is it only faked?) -- but anyway its content has no relationship to Hollingshead

• Keep, notable even if pseudoscience. -- Petri Krohn 09:43, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete a very long way from meeting WP:BIO if the absence of reporting means anything at all (and usually it does). Angus McLellan (Talk) 19:46, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Not making any observation about the science, but the article lacks any independent reliable and verifiable evidence of notability. Blogs and websites are not sufficient. Edison 20:42, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
