Talk:Greek Rural Postmen and Their Cancellation Numbers

Fiction

"For example, the cancellation number 273-56 was for stamp that was cancelled because it was a forgery of an ancient Greek stamp. Another number, 87236, was the number used by a postman who never delivered a letter in his life and just collected the stamps of the letters he was given."

This appears to be taken from the humourous version on http://news.bbc.co.uk/today/hi/today/newsid_7598000/7598964.stm, not from the real book. HairyDan (talk) 12:21, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Oh yes, sorry I made a mistake. Thanks for the correction. ISD (talk) 12:30, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Notablity

I believe that the article covers all aspects of notablity. While, it may be considered that this may fall from WP:NOTNEWS, I think it is suitable because this book has been mentioned several times in the news over several years. Also, I believe that anything which won an award deserves an article. ISD (talk) 19:35, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
