Josh Alman[edit]

Delete as hoax; "Dr. Josh Alman" and "Dr. Josh Allman" turn up nothing on Google. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 05:06, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, could User:God1024 and User:Frac2 be a case of sockpuppetry? Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 05:08, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The closest thing to notability I've seen is [5] (a reference to [6] which does not appear to be a reliable source). I can't tell whether this is a hoax or a real (but obscure) person. But in either case, you need sources to write a biography, and we haven't seen them yet. Kingdon (talk) 16:02, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Delete. This is a hoax. I know the subject in question and he is a high school student. Cybersach
Delete After some digging, I am convinced that its a hoax too, the kid is still in his teens. Hardyplants (talk) 16:02, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
