[edit] Curse of Superman

Documents as if true a very unknown and unreported, unverifiable "curse" on Superman actors; not only is this probably a joke, it is certainly not notable in an encyclopedia.  Alfakim --  talk  00:30, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy delete as patent nonsense. Only two people are listed as suffering from this "curse" - one who died in the 50's from suicide, and the other who was paralyzed and then died of cardiac arrest. Aplomado ^talk 00:34, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy delete as above. BigDT 00:56, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy delete as nonsense. RobLinwood 02:12, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - I've heard of this supposed curse, but as it stands this article is original research. --Joelmills 02:50, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
• Speedy delete and tagged per G1 (though the definition of "patent nonsense" may be a little narrow by some, who may wish to remove the tag). TheProject 02:55, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Maybe put it back when Dean Cain, Tom Welling and Brandon Routh all die in the same plane crash? :/ Danny Lilithborne 04:42, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. I have removed the speedy nomination as our criteria require the article to be unintelligible. This isn't incoherent but is original research. It would need third party sources referring to the curse of Superman in order to be retained. Capitalistroadster 05:52, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. There are sources which discuss the possibility of a "curse of Superman", but there isn't enough substance to the "curse" to make it worth an encyclopedia article. --Metropolitan90 06:36, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. Not enough incidents to lend proof to the curse. Not notable enough. --Bolasanibk 06:54, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
• Don't any of you people google? [1], [2]. Can we at least judge the full facts, rather than this dire article? Average Earthman 06:58, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete per above. DarthVader 07:52, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
