The result of the debate was Speedied as vandalism. I trust the judgment of the five editors below who expressed desire to have this speedily deleted as such. android79 21:37, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] User:¹ articles: Strange cakes, Five-leaf haresbane, Battleaxe chronicles, Delloi, and Littel
User:¹ (contribs) has created several articles which all look very dubious to me: Strange cakes, Five-leaf haresbane, Battleaxe chronicles, Delloi, and Littel. I can't find any evidence for any of these on Google. The user's other edits, to five other articles (all in the last day) all look suspicious too, but I dont know enough about the subjects to say for sure. Finally, the user page ("I'm script1 and I'm super") screams danger, danger. I think all these edits are a sophisticated hoax that has wasted an hour of my day. sjorford #£@%&$?! 14:22, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
(Note: I've relisted this on today's page, as since the heading wasn't linked originally, it seems people may have missed in when scanning down the page. sjorford #£@%&$?! 19:04, 16 September 2005 (UTC))
- I speedied delloi, no such thing. The rest is not my knowledge, but judging from lack of context, I vote delete for all for the reasons of non-verifiability. mikka (t) 19:11, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy Delete All of the above pages should be speedied as vandalism. None of these subjects are remotely verifiable or real and are pretty obviously page creation vandalism.--Isotope23 19:35, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy delete, per Isotope23. Creation of one obvious hoax puts the remaining unverifiable contributions in serious doubt. -- BD2412 talk 19:42, 16 September 2005 (UTC)

- Speedy delete although "hoax" technically isn't a speedy criteria (yet), one user creating a whole slew of fake articles is obviously a form of vandalism. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 20:58, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy delete The OED doesn't have littel or harebane although there are two Google hits for the latter which lend it some plausibility. However the other timewasting is far worse than obvious nonsense - so get rid of the lot unless a real botanist knows better. Dlyons493 21:08, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
