[edit] Borro of Arezzo

I can't find any verification of this. Seems to be part of an elaborate hoax involving the creation of articles on non-existent Christian martyrs. Included in the hoax appears to be the articles Eisaak Intelekus (deleted and protected), Paolo Rappi (speedy deleted), Borro of Arezzo, Kristof Walken, Thomas Szük (on AFD), and Langsprechenism (deleted and protected), as well as various edits to List of people burned as heretics. Responsible for this appear to be the users Pvtjoker (talk · contribs), 64.180.161.17 (talk · contribs), 24.85.192.195 (talk · contribs), 207.6.225.142 (talk · contribs), and 64.180.122.142 (talk · contribs). --u p p l a n d 07:09, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

Also User:64.180.122.142, who created several other hoax articles based on "Eisaak Intelekus." I just blocked that IP for 48 hours for repeat hoaxing and userpage vandalism. · Katefan0^(scribble) 03:29, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

• Delete as unverifiable probably hoax. Wikipedia only source of Google results for this name see [1] One Google print result relating to medieval painting not early martyrs. Capitalistroadster 09:20, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

• If we delete this article, will it end up in the Elysian fields, where the tree stands, or will it only make it to Hades? We'll never know. Str1977 23:35, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
