The result was speedy close - this was created by a serial hoaxster. Hoaxes aren't CSD material, but common sense applies. Grand master ka 22:44, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Saskatoon Heros

This article discusses a track and field club that does not exist in Saskatoon. As such, it is a very nice work of fiction but is simply that fiction. Shootmaster 44 06:47, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No reference anywhere to a Saskatoon track and field team named either Heros or Heroes. --Charlene 09:35, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as hoax -- and an obvious, clumsy one -- and the creator should get a sandbox message. RGTraynor 16:56, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, hoax, and not a very good one. Corvus cornix 17:54, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy delete as hoax. Probably could have just been deleted outright rather than AFD. 23skidoo 19:03, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  - This is off-topic for this nomination, but when did the policy change? We used to speedy obvious hoax articles all the time. My vote remains unchanged as if the policy has changed, I disagree with the change. Obvious hoaxes - as in those that are recognized as B.S. by a number of editors, thereby indicating it is not nominator ignorance, should be removed as quickly as possible. 23skidoo 20:31, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, hoax. The author posts nothing but hoaxes and misinformation. In addition to making hoax articles he adds nonsense to real articles and links them to his hoaxes. He was blocked for a short period and started posting new hoaxes as soon as the ban expired. He has made no attempt to defend his edits but just blanks out Prod and AfD tags. I think he is a hopeless case and should be blocked indefinately.--DanielRigal 22:22, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
