[edit] Yuusuke Santamaria

Tagged for speedy as a hoax due to "wrong year of birth", which has since been changed. I have no idea about the (unsourced) content, but since "hoax" is not a WP:CSD, I am listing this here. Kusma (討論) 23:28, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete unless sourced -- I can find evidence for an actor of this name to exist, but not for the content of the article. See also Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/"james" sketch. Kusma (討論) 00:00, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete unless sourced --Nick Y. 00:04, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete unless sourced. Looks unlikely since there are only 210 GHits for this person. M1ss1ontomars2k4 | T | C | @ 00:14, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment there is an actor named Yusuke Santamaria, though...IMDB, Google. I'm not sure if this clears anything up, though. -- Scientizzle 03:19, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete The Japanese Wikipedia article ja:ユースケ・サンタマリア about the real Yūsuke Santamaria does not mention his death, and the location given for his funeral is phony. Fg2 04:11, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
    • The real actor's Web site is here (in Japanese). The Japanese Wikipedia article has been edited two dozen times since the date of his alleged death. Fg2 04:16, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete then, in light of Fg2's bilingual research. If the Japanese don't think he's dead...he probably ain't. This certainly seems like a hoax. -- Scientizzle 05:00, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete. Unsourced hoax.--Hezzy 00:49, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete. The guy exists, he is very notable, but except his year of birth everything else in this article is pure invention. Better to start again from scratch. Tensaibuta 14:06, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
