[edit] Republic of Labuan
Not a micro-nation in any sense. An article on Labuan as an island won't hurt, but claiming it to be a micronation with a coat of arms and other things is a little bit too much. Note that this article comes from the same editor who promoted the fictitious Republic of Henderson Island (See the VfD for the deleted article) Ragib 06:45, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete: NN, dubious, not substantiated. --Ragib 06:47, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as the Republic of Labuan does not have any de jure or de facto recognition under the international law. The name of the article is misleading, and the information available in the article may be integrated with the contents in the article on Labuan. --Bhadani 07:07, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, as per Bhadani. – AxSkov (☏) 07:55, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete as hoax. I think we need to do a cleanup of Labuan unless former Scotsman Morris Davidson did lead an independence movement there. Given that a Google search for "Morris Davidson" Labuan came up empty see [1], I suspect that the information in our article/s is nonsense. Capitalistroadster 10:36, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
- Delete Labuan is definitely real, but I don't know if this "independence movement" is. the article doesn't mention any other members of this movement other than this "Morris Davidson". I don't think he even exists, or he is probably the user who created this. --Revolución (talk) 13:33, 11 September 2005 (UTC)
