I thought this was interesting: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=348854665
The list was generated last month. It's looking at Levenshtein distances and ratios. The selected values for this specific list are rather arbitrary and there are some clear false positives. Still, interesting. |

What are you hoping to do with this list, out of curiosity? I went through and PROD'd a couple and deleted one then I realized just how enormous it is. Sure they probably need a lot of work and double checking, but so do a lot of blps.  |

It's a rudimentary method of detecting potential conflicts of interest. I have no real intentions for the list. |

I just sourced Lyn_Hancock. (#12 in that list) Thanks for doing the list, man. |

Ultimately a waste of time: your sources prove beyond a shadow of a doubt Lyn Hancock is completely non-notable. Perusing a few of them at random, it seems most of these self-created, self-edited articles suffer from the same problem. Unsourced, or if sourced, non-notable. But nooooooooo, we can't erase the Precious Content, no matter how useless it may be! So, Enric Naval, one down and one thousand, six huncred and eighty to go! |
