The result was Delete as hoax. I realize this is only a day old discussion, but the research has been done and it's obviously not a legitimate article. Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 15:11, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fischer Thomas
Non-notable individual that does not stand up to scrutiny. Subject does not appear on List of Medal of Honor recipients and neither does any conflict in Slovakia. When article was initially created it was proposed for speedy deletion based on the fact that the subject was noted as having been born in 1993 and joined the army at age 17, which using basic mathematics points to a nonsense article. These dates have since been changed significantly to make the article fit. Also it fails WP:COI as the article creator is Thefischer (talk · contribs). Roleplayer (talk) 13:51, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete - Apparent hoax. Unable to find any sources that verify this story. Doesn't appear in either the living recipients list or the list of recently departed --Onorem♠Dil 14:02, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Smells like a hoax. Delete unless there are sources to verify any of this.--Cube lurker (talk) 14:03, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per roleplayer. a) Probably a hoax, b) not on list, c) about 1/2 of the people on the Medal of honor list don't even have an article and d) the user who mostly worked on the article is Thefischer. Coincidence? Shapiros10 (talk) 14:16, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete per above, appears to be a hoax given lack of sources. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 14:20, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Delete I de-speedied it so it could be tested here. It's been checked, and now it's obvious. DGG (talk) 14:43, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
