The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the miscellaneous page below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the page's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result of the discussion was delete all. A couple of these were moved into mainspace after this nomination, so I speedily deleted them as blatant hoaxes, deleted the others (and various nonsense userspace redirects calculated to make it look as though there were lots of proper blue links in the articles) using Special:Nuke, and then blocked the user indefinitely. Is that everything? BencherliteTalk 23:34, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This userspace article appears to be an elaborate hoax designed to promote the subject. While there are 130 references on the article, many of them are broken links. While it is reasonable to believe that a few links are dead, it is extremely suspicious when dozens of links are dead when the article was only created a month ago. Further references are wikilinks to articles with no reference to the subject, and links to charts that do not mention the songs that the reference purport to support. Google news demonstrates that the broken links are deliberate, as the only news result that comes close to being on point is an article covering the Wikipedia page itself. As far as I can identify, not a single reference actually supports the notion that this may be legitimate. Monty845 18:28, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
