• I tried to speedy, but it was replaced by prod, which the original author deleted. Sorry to waste everyone's time with this. Pseudomonas 20:31, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
• Someone has declared xyr bedroom to be a micronation, and not informed anyone apart from Wikipedia. There is no evidence that this micronation exists anywhere outside of this Wikipedia article. It is unverifiable. The author writes on Talk:Hamland that "we want to let the world know about" the micronation and that xe has "a problem with the ones who would like to take the information on this counrty away from the members of the english speaking public of the world". Wikipedia is not a soapbox for letting the world know about something, and if merely deleting this article from a tertiary source "takes the information away" from the world, then the knowledge didn't exist outside of Wikipedia in the first place and this is original research.

• Delete, absolutely fails WP:V. It's a shame there's no speedy category for blatant hoaxes, but WP:DUH! and WP:SNOW seem to apply. --Kinu ^t/_c 22:26, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
• Comment Most readers of Wikipedia are American and therefore don't speak English (or at least don't spell it correctly... I mean, seriously, 'color'?!??!!?!?!). Therefore by his logic Wikipedia is the wrong place to put this. Dave 22:45, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
