[edit] The New Guild
Nominated for speedy deletion as a hoax. But hoaxes, quite specifically, per our Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion, are not speedy deletable (except where they are blatantly vandalism). This is because two pairs of eyes are not enough to reliably make this decision. As the Wikipedia:Guide to deletion explains, AFD is used in order to place multiple layers of swiss cheese into the process. AFD is where multiple editors individually double-check that an article is unverifiable. Somatomy (talk ยท contribs) wrote in xyr speedy deletion nomination that "the books referenced are fake". In fact, at least three of the five books cited in the article are quite real. However, they do not, as far as I can tell, make any mention anywhere of any of the people or things described in this article. Nor do any other books. This article is unverifiable.
