The result was speedy delete on the grounds of being silly vandalism (CSD criterion G3) and an attack page (CSD criterion A6). It's reasonably obvious that someone thought that it would be a grand wheeze to attack someone named Nic Frost by writing a Wikipedia article about a fictitious university position and filling it full of both subtle and blatant references to Mr. Frost's sexual activities. I had a look to see whether I could find anything real to write a stub article about. I couldn't. Uncle G 15:20, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
