[edit] Jane Christ

One of a series of articles on this author and her (unverifiable) books. Two articles on the books have been speedied as nonsense but the author may exist, so AfDing for mature consideration. Can't speedy as notability asserted. Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] AfD? 19:25, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete hoax. For an American author, not generating any relevant Google search is a meaningful sign. - Liberatore(T) 20:13, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Jane Christ has been verified through multiple sources including books on amazon and articles for TIME and Newsweek. She has made many contributions to news networks CNN and Fox News over the past decade. Her most recent article was written for The New Yorker in Jun. 26, 2004 concerning the impact of Micheal Moore of the election.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by DeSantisKJ (talk • contribs) 20:28, January 17, 2006 UTC.

Comment; that's interesting. I am willing to change my vote as soon as proofs of the above are provided. - Liberatore(T) 20:32, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

I couldn't find evidence either, but I am being cautious (newbie admin and all). I can state with some confidence that the claim she is on Amazon is this: complete bollocks. - Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] AfD? 20:38, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

• Delete as unverifiable. Google search for "The Last Best Thing" "Jane Christ" returns zero hits. Potential hoax. FCYTravis 00:29, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete as unverifiable. No hits on Google, no information available on New Yorker article, which is very surprising. - Dharmabum420 02:00, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Delete, investigate and block author for hoax/vandalism. No reference on Amazon.com. And, when it comes to The New Yorker, I happen to own the entire set (through February 2005) on DVD, and (1) there is no June 26, 2004 issue, and (2) neither the June 14 nor June 28 issues have anything by a "Jane Christ" or "J. Christ", and (3) in fact, the complete index 1925-2005 shows nothing by that name. This is an unmitigated hoax. MCB 03:11, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
• Delete MCB beat me to it (I've got the same DVD set). --Calton | Talk 04:59, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete: The creator is a hoaxer. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Marl J. Pierce III. Hu 16:49, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
