Books For Crooks[edit]
First, John Duncer gets zero google hits. Second, there is no such thing as the "American Achievers Award", (there is an African-American Achievers Award, not the same thing). This anon has been going around creating stubs like John Duncer and American Achievers Award all in support of this hoax article. func(talk) 07:17, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Unless there is actual proof of the existence of these things, delete. Harro5 08:12, Jun 3, 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy delete. Patent nonsense. Wikibofh 14:30, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Just to note, this article does not qualify for speedy deletion. While it may turn out to be nonsense, it is not patent nonsense. Denni☯ 23:53, 2005 Jun 3 (UTC)
- Comment, this same anon, under several different IPs, has also been vandalising VH1 Classic, and has been creating joke articles like Hide the salami, (which has now been redirected). func(talk) 16:32, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- For those who were curious but afraid to click at work, Hide the salami redirects to Sexual slang. --TenOfAllTrades (talk/contrib) 01:27, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. "Books for Crooks" gets no legit Google hits. Interestingly enough, there is such an organization though, calling itself Books Through Bars. Denni☯ 23:51, 2005 Jun 3 (UTC)
