[edit] Alex Falconer

Unverifiable, probably hoax (first paragraph of article more or less says so), no trace of claimed albums. Dalbury^(Talk) 03:30, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete: The article itself says the teens "have decided to give themselves interesting back stories to add to the mystique of the project" which indicates that it is a fabrication. Hu 03:45, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Comment The hoax paragraph at the top was added by 12.77.118.135, who also added it to Sam Lazerwitz, so you may want to take a look at that, too. -- Saikiri~ 03:51, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

• • • Comment However, I did try to check out the albums 'Falconer' supposedly recorded, and got no hits at all. Still smells like a hoax to me, independent of that first paragraph. -- Dalbury^(Talk) 04:39, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
      • What I meant was the Sam Lazerwitz article is probably a hoax of this flavor as well. Well, I'll go AfD it now. -- Saikiri~ 05:44, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy delete as silly vandalism. This man was born in 1976 supposedly became Elvis' successor then went into hiding for 28 years. That would mean that he was 2 when his recording career was at its peak. Capitalistroadster 04:46, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Hoax. -- Saikiri~ 05:44, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
• No relevant google hits. Pound with asteroids --YixilTesiphon 15:47, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete obvious hoax. Alex Falconer should refer to the former Member of the European Parliament. David | Talk 19:45, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete, but not speedy: Because it admits that it's fiction, it's not vandalism. However, original fiction is disallowed from Wikipedia, including fan fiction and self-fan fiction. Geogre 20:51, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete; fictional biographies are not suitable for Wikipedia. If the project of which it is a part is (or becomes) notable, some of the info here might be suitable for an article on that. *Dan T.* 16:54, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
