Pigman Road[edit]
Delete as non-notable legend. Google search for "Pigman Road"+Angola only brings up 19 unique results. "Pigman Road"+Buffalo does a bit better with 35, but some of the results appear to be about a music group. The subject is of local interest only. Contested prod. ... discospinster talk 02:48, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- "This topic isn't written about much, especially on the internet these days. It's maily spread through word of mouth, passed on in snippets and stories people tell one another about hearing about 'this Pigman thing', and it's tough to find out about the Pigman legend, so that's why I've decided to bring this to you." That's pretty much the opposite of Wikipedia:Reliable sources and Wikipedia:Verifiability. Delete. --Elkman (Elkspeak) 03:03, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete per WP:N, seems to be a fantasy tale thought up by someone who chose to promote it via Wikipedia.[1]
