[edit] Rost

Was nominated for uncontroversial deletion since it is clearly a hoax, and if not it's still crystal balling, but prod was removed anonymously without comment, so listing for AfD. ~ Matticus78 16:28, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Additional: The same anonymous editor who removed the prod went on to add the same nonsense to Rost (crater). ~ Matticus78 16:44, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom; WP:NOT a crystal ball, but 99.9999% hoax. WP:V would make good reading for the "possibly genuine" crowd; note where the burden of proof lies. Angus McLellan (Talk) 08:50, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Save, as it could indeed be genuine. DjibrilCisse 09:48, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Observation: Guess what? Users DjibrilCisse, Topgearisgreat, Tcarins, Teamkeogh and Moomccow all joined on the 8th of July and have no edits except to the article and its AfD, with the occasional foray into other articles to vandalize them with Rost references. Fancy that! It must be a coincidence!! I'm not sure where the Nortelrye vote came from, since there is no edit by him/her in this AfD history or that user's own edit history - the comment was in fact added by Topgearisgreat. Also Topgearisgreat added "unfairly nominated" to my initial AfD rationale. For the love of all that is sane, someone ban this joker and his sockpuppets of doom. ~ Matticus78 10:29, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
