Michael Blatch[edit]

Unreferenced, possible hoax. No evidence to back up breaststroke record. Ghits: "Michael Blatch" +breaststroke. Looks like the record holders in 1964 were a couple of gents from the Soviet Union: World record progression 100 metres breaststroke. Zip for "Graeme Day trophy". Last, but not least (or maybe it is?); soccer (football): "Michael Blatch" +soccer, "Michael Blatch" +football. --AbsolutDan ^(talk) 18:55, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The best I can do is confirm at least one person with that name exists. As for the rest, it smells hoaxy and Google isn't telling me anything different. --DanielRigal (talk) 19:08, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete There are multiple claims of notability, but the claims are completely unverifiable. Townlake (talk) 04:16, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as unverifiable. A hoax? Almost certainly. -- Whpq (talk) 13:15, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
