[edit] Zinnamon church massacre

The article has no references or sources, there is no mention of the incident on the Internet - except for Wikipedia and it's mirrors and the original author has made no other edits except for the creation of this article. This, in addition to the comment left on the talk page, by the party who had originally written to OTRS - lead me to believe the article is a hoax. Versageek 03:32, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Failed google test miserably and per above--Lenticel ^(talk) 09:19, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. The Talk comment is upsetting, although to be sure this is probably just a ghost story that got out of hand during a confirmation class overnight, or something like that. Fails WP:V. Get rid of it. --Dhartung | Talk 19:37, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete seems to be a hoax ffm 23:45, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, hoaxalicious. Can we WP:SNOW this yet? --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 23:49, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Amazing that it stayed up more than two months. The red links are evidence enough that there is no such thing as "Devil's Den State Park", "Strickler, Arkansas" or "sno-cones"! Creepy, round the campfire story...And they never found the murderer in the Richard Nixon mask... (Then you make peace signs and scream "I AM NOT A CROOK!!!") Mandsford 02:31, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
• Comment sno-cones = snow cones, a swift google congirms that there IS a "Strickler, Arkansas" (there's a nuclear power station nearby - SEFOR). DuncanHill 13:44, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
• Further Comment and there is (according to this link) a Zinnamon Church in Strickler. [1] DuncanHill 13:49, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
• Comment again and according to Google maps, Strickler and the Zinnamon Church are near to Devil's Den State Park, look here [2]. DuncanHill 13:52, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
