[edit] Asad TV

Delete as a hoax. This is a disputed prod; removed by an anon user. There are no relevant Google hits [1] so even if this is not fake, there are no reliable sources provided. Gay Cdn (talk) (email) (Contr.) 00:02, 8 August 2006 (UTC) - Agree with the addition of the 6 people listed below.--Gay Cdn (talk) (email) (Contr.) 01:41, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete as it fails WP:V and there is nothing on google. If an Urdu speaking editor can confirm this is legit, I would reconsider.--Kchase T 00:31, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
    • Delete all the additional articles as well. Created by the same bad actor.--Kchase T 01:55, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment It certainly looks like a hoax. Jim Jones, cult leader who died 30 years ago, was an actor on the channel? --Xyzzyplugh 00:32, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete — per all of the above --AbsolutDan (talk) 00:37, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete obvious hoax: 1. the contributor's name, 2. "There's an Asad TV in every country", 3. contributor's editing history. Nuke it and ban the perpetrator. Danny Lilithborne 00:48, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Very Strong Delete Asad Tv looks like a hoax to me.No google hits to validate it. No mention of it in Pakistani media. Only mention of it in google is in wikipedia. I would also like to nominate asad tv actors for deletion
    • Jack Popat - claims to be the son of Martha Jones and Simon Jones (actor)
    • Edwin Popat- as above.
    • Harsh Khanna- Non existent actor.
    • Ahmed Khanna- claims to be a famous hunter and hunted in Delhi. Hunting is illegal in India and there are no forests in Delhi.
    • Mohammad Qasim Tariq and Qasim Tariq- 12 years old and he is a retired wrestler already.
    • Asad TV Kushti Maza (AKM) No existent Tv show of a non existent channel.

  • Delete - per nom and above. -- Gogo Dodo 05:01, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Michael 06:00, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete for apparent hoaxery. --Coredesat talk. ^_^ 09:59, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as per all comments above. Unverifiable, possible hoax Localzuk (talk) 13:07, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Evidence strongly supports this is a hoax. It presently seems more verifiable as a hoax than as a real thing. Hence I support rapid deletion of all of the above. --WikipedianProlific(Talk) 13:44, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete - All of the above, as they are apparently all part of the same hoax. Badbilltucker 15:48, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, hoax, a bunch of 12-year-olds. Apparently Mohammad Qasim Tariq was in a video game two years before he was born. User:Zoe|(talk) 17:00, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Themindset 17:00, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. Unverified, and though a Google search returns many pages relating to "Asad" and "TV," it does not return anything about the channel. --Gray Porpoise 21:09, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nominator as an unverifiable topic and probable hoax. Yamaguchi先生 21:23, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nominator. Asad Aleem is creator of article on AsadTV, and scored precisely 118 Ghits, majority of which are for a development banker. Hit it with WP:AUTO, WP:NN, WP:NOT (soapbox) or WP:HOAX, and it falls without question. Delete all the others per Ageo020, WP:NN, WP:NOT (soapbox) or WP:HOAX as Writer of article has no credibility. Ohconfucius 05:36, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete All Asad Aleem got speedied when it showed up as new; but a bunch of others apparently got through. Carlossuarez46 21:41, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
