Brian Gibello[edit]

Originally maked as db-bio by me, NawlinWiki changed it to PROD and the article creator (who based on a Google search is the subject of the article as well) then removed the PROD. So per policy I bring it here. Fails WP:BIO, claims made in new article are simply not verifiable and IMO not true and lead me to believe it is a WP:HOAX -- DrunkenSmurf 21:56, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete hoaxter, methinks - see this. Camillus (talk) 22:44, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This is obviously a hoax (the Forbes citation, anyway...), can't it be speedy? There seem to be some allegation that he is actually a criminal.--Ogdred 22:56, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Those were my thoughts when I saw the article originally and did a quick search for the name, but as I noted above an admin thought it should be prodded instead. DrunkenSmurf 00:55, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as a hoax. I can find nothing to corroborate this article. —dustmite 00:19, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete and concur that this looks like a hoax. My Alt Account 03:29, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
DONT Delete Google searched bring up nothing, a look into DOT Info's public records shows Brian Gibello as the acting CEO. It also brings me to think the net wealth figure could be correct if company profit is anything to go by. There happens to be a artical on Brian in Forbes September, although this is not the same for the website MyPINKthing 12:29, 15 September 2006 (UTC)— Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.128.124.58 (talk • contribs) [reply]
- MyPINKthing looks to be a fake -- the timestamp doesn't match the history log, and there is no such user. —Ogdred 23:52, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  - You're right - good catch. The comment was added by an anonymous user editing on an IP. Srose (talk) 23:55, 14 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
