The result was Deleted speedily by Dlohcierekim as a hoax. As noted before, this unsourced BLP turned up unverifiable in a search for information-- no 2009 outsiders and and no josh Klein child actors. 13:37, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article is unreferenced and I could find no sources to verify any of the content. There is no listing for this individual at IMDb, a search for "Josh Klein" + actor turns up no useful results, and the mention of a 2009 version of The Outsiders also cannot be substantiated. This appears to be a hoax, but at the very least this individual fails WP:NOTE. ShelfSkewed Talk 04:59, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete, hoax. No entry at imdb and there was no 2009 version of The Outisders. Woogee (talk) 05:01, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as an unusually specific hoax. "Ponyboy Curtis" is an unusual role to falsely attribute to someone. Usually these articles are a cut-and-paste of a real actor with names changed, or the pattern of roles chosen is clearly someone's idea of a joke. But yes, there's no 2009 version of The Outsiders and no Josh Klein I can find with a remotely similar career. - DustFormsWords (talk) 05:54, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
