Alec MacKinnon[edit]

Either not notable, or joke/prank/fiction, by same anon as Andrew McGillivray above, and Willie Copp further above. Neither alec MacKinnon "national geographic" hummingbird nor alexander MacKinnon "national geographic" hummingbird find anything related. Also note orphan--a UCLA trained naturalist should be on one of the 'list of encyclopedic topics'-type lists. Niteowlneils 22:35, 26 Nov 2004 (UTC)

  • I was sure "Giant Andean Hummingbird" was a joke, and it still might be. I got 4 google hits (apparently from reliable sites), which is alot for something that doesn't exist, and few for something that does. If this page is not a joke, it's still not notable.

  • Delete: Prank. "Famous naturalist" who did "famous studies," who has had his doctorate for 10 years and cannot show up on a Google search (and National Geographic has a heavy web presence both for its magazine and the actual National Geographic Society) is pretty much impossible.
