Eftychios Aristodemou[edit]

Appears to be a hoax. Google search returns not a single hit linking this person to NASA. Creator's user name is the same, and the article has enough spelling errors to show me that they person is not NASA material. I was half tempted to speedy it, but hoaxes are supposed to go through the process, so here we are. Oh, and an IP editor today was trying to add the name of this person to several NASA articles, placing this person's name alongside and equal with Goldin.

comment The same IP (a single-purpose account) has edited the Eftychios Aristodemou article and also attempted to delete comments by Beeblebrox and myself from the Talk Page. Nelson Nanataktuk (talk) 00:51, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete The spelling of this article's name suggests to me that it looks like a hoax, it looks like gibberish instead of a real name. Lets drinkTea 02:16, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, but definitely not speedy. Eftychios is a real name [1] and Aristodemou a real last name [2] so calling the name gibberish is a bit off-base. That being said, the subject is either made-up/hoax or if real is either non-notable or said notability can't be verified. At least I can't verify it.

comment I mentioned on the talk page that this appears to be a Greek name. If we could get someone who can read Greek, they might be able to check the Greek Wikipedia. If you check the very first revision of the article, it looks like it was copy/pasted from another Wikipedia. It does seem somewhat unlikely that someone could attain such an important post at NASA at only twenty five. Beeblebrox (talk) 03:15, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

comment Probably Cypriot, Ευτύχιος Αριστοδήμου; no article on Greek Wiki, no significant match on Google; doesn't seem to be any more notable in Greek than English. Nelson Nanataktuk (talk) 14:42, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per possible WP:HOAX. No sources for this reportedly notable person. --Artene50 (talk) 06:18, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The same findings as Linguist, in English and Greek. Nelson Nanataktuk (talk) 18:42, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Snowball Delete What at first appeared to be a bad translation now looks more and more like a bad hoax. Beeblebrox (talk) 18:44, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - almost certainly hoax, certainly fails WP:V. JohnCD (talk) 14:34, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - probable hoax riddled with questionable facts; how was he appointed by George W. Bush more than a year before Bush was even elected? evildeathmath 18:05, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It says George H.W. Bush (aka Bush the first) who was also not president at that time, Bill Clinton was still in office. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:37, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Don't know if it's a hoax, but it fails WP:V. --Rosiestep (talk) 01:13, 27 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
