[edit] Cirque du Freak: Bloody Brawl and Cirque du Freak (anime)

Cirque du Freak: Bloody Brawl was originally nominated for speedy deletion - with the following reason: google search reveals that the only mentions of the game at all are on Wikipedia. All edits made by a single user, blatantly false hoax article - which was changed to WP:PROD. Another user noted that the articles have been confirmed to be false (or an unverifiable rumor at best) here. Still, the author removed the deletion notice with no explanation. Delete, candidates for speedy deletion (as hoax/vandalism). - Mike Rosoft 12:42, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete, should be speedy. Reasons per nom. --Javit 12:47, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

*Speedy delete, this AfD is a waste of time. --Ashenai 12:50, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Correction: Delete the game, keep or make a separate AfD for the anime. --Ashenai 13:46, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete per nom. --Evb-wiki 12:57, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Forthcoming is still speculative. Anime is still not notable as nonexistent. Delete for now. --Evb-wiki 14:32, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment - Hold up here; the anime is forthcoming [1], the manga exists [2], but the Bloody Brawl video game seems to be only speculation. So argue notability perhaps for the anime page, but speedy delete is only warranted for the game. Tarc 13:06, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep for the anime, delete the game as future speculation. Gustav von Humpelschmumpel 13:36, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep the anime for now. --badlydrawnjeff talk 13:39, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete and Comment - Strong delete per nom. Also, for those saying keep the anime, the IMDB page is not for an anime adaptation. It is for a live-action adaptation for which there already is a verified wiki page, Cirque du Freak (film), so yes, the anime movie is a hoax. Also, I asked the author himself, and he confirmed that they are both hoaxes. -AtionSong 15:19, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete both per nom and AtionSong above. Deor 16:31, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete both per AtionSong. The author of these articles, Manplush (talk ยท contribs), has a bit of a history creating hoax pages; see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/SBGT for an example. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 18:46, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
    • I'd also suggest nominating The Cirque du Freak, an article about the supposed first episode of this anime, into this discussion as well. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 22:25, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
      • Seconded. -AtionSong 23:35, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment To the closing admin: please also consider Cirque du Freak: Dawn of a Prince, another hoax article created by User:Manplush into the deletion. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 21:20, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete hoaxes from Wikipedia with extreme prejudice. --John 22:03, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
