From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Slapjoy and Monkfish was proposed for deletion. This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was DELETE

Looks like hoax:

  1. Google search returns 2 links [1] both from Urban Dictionary.
  2. Director is one of main characters.
  3. Films are claimed to be recent.
  4. Article claims: Certain characters were the inspiration for other characters in major motion pictures, including Dectective Ohls as the model for Johnny Depp's portrayal of Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Carribean., yet neither of the links is related to PotC nor can this be verified by another source than the article.

    • Really, given the ridiculous articles for each of those three, Slapjoy and Monkfish should be speedied as an obvious hoax/falsity too. Samaritan 19:33, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)

  • Was blanked by some anon, is now speedied, for non-verifiability and linking to hoaxes. [[User:MacGyverMagic|Mgm|(talk)]] 08:29, Dec 20, 2004 (UTC)
  • Neither "nonverifiability" nor "linking to hoaxes", or even being a hoax, is a reason for speedy deletion. Dr Zen 06:07, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)
