Talk:Ultan Quigley

Does he exist? Early verdict: no

[edit]

A search for his name in online bookshops (of Ireland and UK) find nothing from any "Ultan Quigley".

I know The Irish Times published two humourous articles under this name, but where's the evidence that this poet and his poetry really exist? Further, a web-search for his "no tigers" book only finds Wikipedia (plus clones) and irishtimes.ie. Hmm. Looks like he's a joke.

So who wrote those two Irish Times articles? Gronky (talk) 01:42, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In case it aids anyone's research, there was also a link, which I removed, in the 1956 article saying that Mr. Quigley was born on February 12th of that year. Gronky (talk) 01:55, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
