[edit] Where is he from, exactly?

I saw an interview with this guy, but I'm getting conflicting information about his national origin. I get the impression that he is an American who has spent a lot of time travelling around to different countries. The thing is... what's with the accent? Is he "British" like Madonna, or something? --68.209.29.166 04:09, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dead link

http://hfp.puellula.com/Press/2005-07-12.html does not seem to have the content that is described. If other editors can access Ashford's response, then please summarize it here. -Will Beback 23:59, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

In my last edit I fixed it -- it was supposed to be http://hfp.puellula.com/Press/2005-12-07.html. // paroxysm (n) 00:21, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

I still see no response to the parents of missing girls. I see him saying he can't afford to keep the site running. -Will Beback 00:31, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, it doesn't work in Opera. Actually, I think it's more of a Firefox glitch that allows you to see the content. http://img271.imageshack.us/img271/1180/will9vh.png // paroxysm (n) 00:41, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

I get the same result in Firefox. I'll assume your summary is correct, but delete the link.-Will Beback 00:44, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

This is odd. I can't view the page either and i've tried IE, Firefox and Opera. --Jelligraze 06:55, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

I'm using Firefox 1.04/win. // paroxysm (n) 19:32, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Zanthalon created this article on himself. Goes to show you how notable he really is. 216.165.12.100 01:23, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

And if, say... this guy wrote his own article, would that mean he is not notable? I doubt it.

I agree with Silent War. There is nothing wrong with him making an article about himself given his fame. Jelligraze 03:42, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Well Jimmy Wales didn't start that article on himself. If you're notable enough to have an encyclopedia article about yourself, someone else would have already made one for you. 216.165.12.100 21:42, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

The Obama-stunt certainly qualifies as notable. Even the Norwegian news services covered it. This guy deserves an article, IMO, and it seems NPOV, not a vanity page or whatever. Zuiram 07:05, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Neither puellula.com nor puellula.org work. I can't find any information on why the domains throw a 404 or if they are going to be back. As a new editor, I'm not sure how to address the dead links in this article, since they are the only references for some of the statements. Animamea 10:12, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
