  • Merge Would it be possible to merge this article with the Randy Cunningham#Education and military service Section? --RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 13:04, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep and tag for referencing. He apparently isn't a real person but a propoganda hoax. However, sources do seem to be available. A google book search indicates addiitonal information can be found in [http://books.google.ca/books?id=x4-pNj9-WoYC&dq=%22Nguyen+Toon%22&client=firefox-a this book]. -- Whpq (talk) 15:11, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep or Merge - Whpq's book linked above mentions Toon on 3 separate pages, and they are more than brief mentions. It quotes ex-pilots discussing him. I found [http://books.google.com/books?id=JU_y7ePC2T8C&pg=PA492&dq=%22nguyen+toon%22 another book] that lists Toon as an "ace" with 13 kills, consistent with what is claimed in the article. This is still just barely clearing the hurdle of WP:N so if it is still felt that the article doesn't belong, information about Toon should be added to the Randy Cunningham article with the two books found as references, and redirect this page to that one. -- Atamachat 20:28, 26 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep - another reference found and added to the article - One Day in a Long War discusses "Colonel Toon/Tomb" with regard to whether he was the pilot shot down and concludes that he was didn't exist as such - but does devote more than a page to the matter.Nigel Ish (talk) 01:02, 27 June 2009 (UTC)
