[edit] William Brian Francis

Could be a vanity article, but I'm not convinced it's not a hoax for two reasons: the editor who created this article (his/her only edit, incidentally) included an image (now deleted) of Bob Paris, and I can't find any relevant Google hits for Bradshaw Lisenby, the pen name under which the subject has allegedly published "many religious articles". No relevant Google hits for "William Brian Francis". Delete CLW 18:59, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete How can any of these claims of good character be verified in order to substaniate a vote of notability? If the acts of charity are performed anonymously and writings are under nomes de plumes then there is little or nothing to link to the man himself.  (aeropagitica)  19:16, 14 January 2006 (UTC)
