[edit] EGG/Violet

Supposedly an upcoming single by Ayumi Hamasaki, this article is full of nonsense in the form of ridiculous headings and statements such as "FIRST PRESS COMES WITH EGG BEATER" and "*~*~*~*~*~**~THIS WILL BE HER FIRST SINGLE RELEASED IN THE U.S. IT WILL BE IN ENGRISH 100%*~*~**~*~~". This may or may not be a hoax, but the article creator has spared no effort to make a joke out of the page since the beginning. -- Omicronpersei8 (talk) 02:16, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete (for 24 hours) If the release date is correct then, upon its release, this will become part of the discography of a notable artist. In the likely event that the AfD discussion lasts until the 10th of July then this just needs rewritten. --IslaySolomon 02:22, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

  Note that article author has just changed the article to say that the single is not being released until Nov. 11, 2006 (I guess to try to keep this hoax article up for that long). In light of author's history of blanking the AFD notice, blanking the AFD log, and other nonsense, this is even more evidence for deletion. NawlinWiki 03:23, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

  Comment: As long as he does not delete the AFD notice or add personal attacks or something offensive, let the user modify the article to whatever date he or she prefers. -- ReyBrujo 03:27, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Comment I agree; I'm not saying that the date change should be reverted, just that it's more evidence of a hoax. NawlinWiki 03:32, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, can't find anything on google, and it's not like she doesn't have a web presence or anything. Looks like a hoax to me. Props for the fake cover though, pretty funny. Recury 02:28, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, probable hoax and as the original prod'er. If the single is indeed released on July 10, I will change my vote. However, as it is now, the article seems just a soapbox. If it is a hoax, the closing admin could also delete the cover without having to go through an IFD. -- ReyBrujo 02:42, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

  Image:EGG.JPG is the first cover of the single, apparently. -- ReyBrujo 02:53, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. *Sigh* I know that hoaxes aren't speedyable, but can we please consider this patent nonsense, vandalism, or anything of the like? It looks bad for our encyclopedia if we have this article listed on every Ayumi article page because of the template the user put it into. The article is a pile of nonsense.

• Strong Delete I spent about 10 minutes rewriting and wikifying after deciding whether to mark for delete or rewrite so it needn't be deleted. I have just reverted my changes so that you can see what the article was like before. --Draicone ^(talk) 02:51, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Delete apart from everything else, the article author blanked the entire July 9 AFD log and I had to revert it. NawlinWiki 03:09, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per above. Still says it's going to chart at #1. --DarkAudit 03:33, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
• Strong Delete "Article author has just changed the article to say that the single is not being released until Nov. 11." Please disregard my ealier leniency and delete at will. --IslaySolomon 04:10, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
• Comment It's in the wrong place. I'm moving it to EGG-Violet to remove the subpage. Teke 06:25, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

  I have commented in the user's talk page because I found the move before this AFD in my Watchlist. Creating an article like "EGG/Violet" is perfectly legal in the English Wikipedia, as subpages in the main namespace have been disabled since some time. There is no need to move articles with them, as in example, "EGG/Violet" does not create a subpage "Violet" in the article "EGG", but rather an article with name "EGG/Violet". -- ReyBrujo 06:55, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
