Hi. I have rescued your article, which was in danger of being deleted as a hoax. The first bit was fine, and could be backed up by sources, which I have added: but it was a mistake to put in the facetious bits about pork scratchings and his "frustratingly sober mind", because (a) that jokey tone isn't right for a serious encyclopedia, and (b) you made them up (in WP terms, that's original research) and not verifiable. It was those that made it look like a hoax. Don't be discouraged: have a look at the guide to writing [[WP:YFA|Your First Article. Regards,
