130 years old!!! That's why that I put may be a hoax. ~~Awsome EBE123~~(talk | Contribs) 18:46, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it's not a hoax any more, as I've included a reference to prove that both the birth and death dates are correct. Besides, any article that is tagged as a hoax should be considered for deletion, using any of the three deletion processes. Minima c (talk) 14:45, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This article smacks of a very poorly written hoax and lacks credible sources. It is wrought with spelling errors(albeit in quotation marks) including 'nothing' spelled as 'nuthin'(sic) and then spelled 'nothing' within the same quote. Articles like this destroy any credibility wikipedia may have and serve no constructive purpose. Please delete 205.250.7.158 (talk) 04:40, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There's a difference between an article about a possible hoax, and an article which is a possible hoax. That Magee made these claims, and that they received significant coverage, is verifiable and supported by reliable sources. The truth of the claims themselves is a different matter, but the claims themselves are notable enough for an article. ✤ Fosse 8 ✤ ^talk 11:10, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
