Credibility gap. The Duchy of Windsor may be technically vacant, but a grant of this sort would have been world-famous. Vanity (and petit treason) -- throttle Simon Cursitor 07:55, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- hang, draw and quarter and 'off with his head' --Doc (t) 08:15, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. If he's in line to the throne, I'm a banana. Average Earthman 09:25, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, vanity prank. Megan1967 11:05, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: I agree with the other bananas on this vote. This is a noxious prank, one of a run of "I'm the king in exile" articles we've had lately on VfD. Bring back the rack. Geogre 14:05, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete ... to the gallows! Proto 15:43, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- The Red Queen was correct: "Off with 'is 'ead!" Unverifiable, hoax. Barno 20:12, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- That would be the Queen of 'Earts. PlatypeanArchcow 23:31, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, indeed. James F. (talk) 21:09, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete. Invalid assumption of a royal title is a criminal offense in the United Kingdom. RickK 22:28, May 25, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as a hoax. I doubt if this child was even at the ceremony mentioned. A grant of a formerly-royal dukedom would not confer any succession rights, by the bye. [ -- AlexTiefling 23:17, 25 May 2005 (UTC) ][reply]
- Delete vanity and hoax. - Etacar11 23:24, 25 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I used to work for a newspaper and this reminds me of a guy who'd phone me every couple days claiming to be the Prime Minister of Canada who insisted there was a criminal conspiracy against him dating back to the 1950s and masterminded by Bill Clinton. 23skidoo 05:52, 26 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Depose - another would-be-pretender and insignificant one at that - Skysmith 09:37, 26 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete* As above, if the Queen had given the Duchy of Windsor to a child we would know about it! Also the syle of "Prince" and "HRH" are only granted to the children of the monarch and the children of the sons of monarchs. Therefore unless he is an illigitimate love child of either the Queen, or Princes Charles, Andrew, or Edward, then he is talking rubbish! - Gaylord 18:03, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
