From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- No Google hits at all for "Sven Verbeiren", probably made up. Delete if existence of legend cannot be verified. -- Ferkelparade 11:33, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Looks like patent nonsense; none of the references can be verified by Google, not even the purported 2001 publication. Looks like a carefully constructed hoax. Sjc 11:47, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Has several signs of being a hoax. (Flemish monster from 1864 known by the name "Sandwich"? Quotes from 1864 written in colloquial english. No listing I can find for any of the "references".) Not, however patent nonsense as we define it. Rossami 12:05, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- It looks pretty dubious... I'd say delete it, unless some (extremely unexpected) evidence should turn up to corroborate it. It's good hoax, though... for BJAODN? -FZ 12:39, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- Delete: It's a prank. It's one kid twitting another. (Covered in acne with a nasal voice, dribbling food down his shirt?) Geogre 14:17, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC) (forgot to sign)
- Delete: Seems to be a hoax.--Ern 02:31, Aug 13, 2004 (UTC)
- First of all, I've forgotten my username so can't log in (author of the Sven Verbeiren-page). All the books named in the sources are in my posession, and I've hired a book called "Vlaams Sagenboek", translated "Flemish book of folklore", wich also tales of 't Neuzeken. If I owuld had a scanner, I could prove you.
