[edit] Robo (film)

Robo (film) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

I've searched the entire net for links to at least confirm the validity of this film, and found absolutely nothing. The only thing I could find was that "Robo" or more accurately "Robot" was the working title of Shankar's (apparently the director of the film), Anniyan. The entire page is filled with unconfirmed information. Also, all citations provided in the article are ALL fake. All of them lead to bogey links having nothing to do with the film whatsoever. The article may also be a candidate for speedy deletion. The creator of this article, User:Hedgehog Kanna may also be a sockpuppet of User:Prin who has been blocked countless times for abusive sockpuppetry. Therefore, I propose the article be deleted. -- Hariharan91 08:44, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

• Delete as the nom points out, none of the links actually relate to a film called "Robo", the article is crystal-balling and without reliable sources it should go. The Rambling Man 11:13, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Keep as the film provides references and adequate explainations on the film and about its initial origin via links provided in the refences section of the article. I believe comprehensively that User:Hariharan is generally reverting a good article, which will be expanded in the future. Hedgehog Kanna 18:08, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

• Strong Delete The links and refs do not relate to the film itself. Additionally, User:Hedgehog Kanna seems to have created yet another sockpuppet who has removed the AFD from the article. Mmoyer 02:54, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
• Strong Delete per nom and Mmoyer; all the links refer to another film instead. So far, this is looking like WP:HOAX.  RGTraynor  19:55, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
• Strong delete. Hoax-y, sockpuppets, all sorts of nefarious stuff going on here. Realkyhick 20:44, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
