Boons (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Contested prod/possible hoax. Unsourced article for a combination cricket/netball team. Attempts to find information by a google search finds information for a stuffed animal business, a manufacturer of bread slicers, and a storage rental service, but no apparent hits about a sports enterprise.[1] Searches for names of various individuals from the article return either nothing or false positives. Delete as per WP:V unless proper sources are provided to show this sports enterprise actually exist. --Allen3 talk 12:58, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete: Just a quick read through this article shows it's firmly in WP:NFT and WP:BULLSHIT country, quite aside from the complete lack of sourcing.  RGTraynor  13:05, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete The article is a hoax. Masterpiece2000 (talk) 13:13, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete This article doesn't even begin to assert notability. Almost certainly not a hoax, but an article about a social sporting team that has no hope of ever complying with a single wikipedia policy in any genre falls well within the bounds of CSD G3 per multiple recent precedents.
