Lee Farrant

Guitarist found washed up on Orkney as a baby. Hoax. -- RHaworth 18:50, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete clearly a hoax. --DelftUser 19:37, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete this is a hoax if ever I saw one. --Connor Anderson 19:55, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
  • Make up your mind Connor, you started with Don't delete moved to delete, then voted again for a save. Either you in on the hoax with Fontaine, or it's your hoax (just like Rose To Fame), either way one of you is a Sock puppet. --DelftUser 20:12, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• Save this article is in fact completely factual, i am awaiting some information from a friend of mine so as i can accuratly source the article. -- Paulo Fontaine 20:06, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
• Save Okay, I think it's safe to give you the benefit of the doubt for the time being. --Connor Anderson 20:07, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete this is a load of absolute rubbish. i know lee farrant well and this is all just fabricated lies MarkEdwards 01:44, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
• Save although I cannot verify all the details mentioned i am particurlarly glad i chanced upon this article as I am well aware of the work achieved by the late Lee Farrant from my time spent living on the Isle of Man. May I also express my discomfort with matters of the deceased being discussed in this disgusting 'delete or not delete manner'.(i would also like to wish Mr Fontaine my support in his research regarding this underrated musician) Craig Flowers 03:19, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

• I believe this user to be a Sock puppet, take a look at his contributions. --DelftUser 18:46, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as unverifiable, possible hoax. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-01-17 06:04Z
• Delete I am a well-respected music journalist who also happens to be a longstanding resident of the Isle of Man, and I have never once heard of this supposed "musician". I would invite Fontaine to stop making up nonsense about the musical history of an island whose contribution to the world of music clearly speaks for itself. Barbara Osgood 15:29, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

I think Barbara Osgood is also a sock puppet. I do not think a well-respected music journalist would do this edit. -- RHaworth 19:19, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Agree, look at this edit. I am getting a headache from Connor & friends. Now I am sure he's connected to Paulo (he once edited Lee Farrant). --DelftUser

I can explain everything. I edited Lee Farrant to remove false edits from 82.46.0.49, who also made suspect edits to this very deletion discussion! My minor joke edit on the informative butter page was designed to see if edits to the main butter page also showed up on the main page, given that butter was the day's article of the day.Barbara Osgood 19:34, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Round objects by a systematic fake info contributor Paulo Fontaine (talk | contribs). Notice also the striking resemblance between "Lee Farrant" and another Paulo Fontaine image submission: Fred Dinenage Weregerbil 23:14, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
