[edit] Uri Nation
Obvious hoax, no independent online sources confirm (incl. Geller's site or critics), no IMDB entry. Sergey Romanov 14:10, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
- Comment."Geller semi-retired from public life in the 1980s, although returned to the screens for the current affairs show Uri Nation in the early nineties on satellite TV."([1]). To me it's not clear it's a hoax. Whether it's notable is another story. Stammer 17:02, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

- The program is also mentioned in this book's online blurb (in Italian). Stammer 19:59, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

- Comment. Compare the text at http://the-psychic-detective.com/Uri-Geller.htm to the text of Uri Geller. The the-psychic-detective.com page even copied Wikipedia's [citation needed] notices. -- 192.250.34.161 20:31, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

- Yup, you're right. And the Italian blurb is copied from Italian Wikipedia. Stammer 20:51, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
- Delete- I think it is a hoax. Alphablast 19:17, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
- Obvious delete - Geller does not mention this show on his website and, given that he's a notorious publicity
whoreseeker, there's no way he wouldn't note it if it existed. Furthermore, "UriNation"? Right. Otto4711 19:23, 24 May 2007 (UTC) - Delete ...even if it is hilarious in a back-to-junior-high kind of way. --Dynaflow babble 20:40, 24 May 2007 (UTC)
