Joe Smith (musician)

All claims in this article appear to be false. No evidence that anyone of this name "finished 27th in Series 3 of The X Factor", which wouldn't be notable anyway. No evidence that this person is signed to S-Curve Records. And the rest is just so much b*ll*cks..... ChrisTheDude (talk) 13:37, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - hoax. I agree, not a single claim in here in verifiable. Google search on subject's name that excludes Wikipedia yields no hits, and only content contributor was an IP from last June. I also removed the reference to this person from the S-Curve Records article (added same day by same IP). Xymmax (talk) 14:15, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - No valid sources provided. No sources found. No evidence of notability. - Mdsummermsw (talk) 14:23, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete due to inabaility to find sources and persuasive suggestions of the likelihood of a hoax. Moreover, the article does not seem to be attracting much interest. Best, --Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles^Tally-ho! 23:23, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
