The result was SNOW delete. Even if there were no other considerations, it would be perfectly clear that the subjects are not notable: they have no mentions anywhere. However, from posts on various social network sites and wikis and YouTube, it is clear that "Bang Habib" is the name or (more likely) nickname of someone who also goes by the name Said Muqaffa or Said Muqaffa Al-Idrus, and whose posts on those sites strongly suggest that this is someone (perhaps a child) playing around by creating a fake article with his/her name. Eri Satria seems to be a fairly common name, and numerous pages with that name appear in searches, but they are all irrelevant, and none of them refer to the subject of this Wikipedia article. It is also notable that the name "Eri Satria" does appear on quite a number of pages on social network sites and the like which also contain one or the other of "Bang Habib" or "Said Muqaffa". Furthermore, there is no doubt at all that many, perhaps all, of the edits by the creator of these articles are vandalism. On the whole, the evidence so strongly suggests a hoax that a G3 speedy deletion would be not unreasonable, there is such a lack of indication of significance in the article that an A7 speedy deletion would be not unreasonable, and there is such a lack of evidence of notability to be found anywhere that deletion is inevitably going to be the eventual outcome, so a SNOW deletion is the most reasonable step.

Bang Habib[edit]

Possibly dubious article with no reliable link at least to confirm its existence. The article even has the TV3 Sweden logo. Possibly a creation of user due to "full name." 上村七美 (Nanami-chan) | talkback | contribs 11:16, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am also nominating the following related pages because it is equally dubious with no reliable link (it seems also to look like the name of a person, not a TV station):

Delete - Nary a mention anywhere, either in English- or Indonesian-language sources. There is a man named "Bang" Habib who owns a television station, but not in Aceh. Probable hoax. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:02, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
