I deleted his name from the International Swimming Hall of Fame page because he is not, according to the ISHOF itself, a member of the hall of fame. I did do a Google search and could find no references stating that he was the first Irish person to swim the channel or that he was notable in any way, so I deleted him from the English Channel list of swimmers. If you want the information reinstated, you must provide third-party, reliable sources to back up your claims (see Wikipedia:Verifiability). — jwillbur 15:25, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
