[edit] Eth Bombo

Eth Bombo (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Please sign your comments, and please do not erase other people's comments when you add your own. I'm re-inserting my previous reason here: "this sounds like it is made up or original research, and even if it is a real hominoid cryptid, it will probably fail the notability test too" Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 22:32, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

• Delete There are no google hits for this, I've never come across the name in cryptozoology discussions, and the language stated to be the name's origin doesn't exist. Totnesmartin 22:39, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as WP:HOAX. Note that Michael Stamoulis (talk · contribs) is the article creator and almost all the user's edits concern this article or creating inbound wikilinks to it. --Dhartung | Talk 23:08, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete looks to be a hoax. Nothing on google, gnews, etc. If some sources can be found, maybe it should be kept.. but otherwise, no. ---J.S ^(T/C) 23:09, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Since two people here have called it a hoax, I added the hoax tag. Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 23:59, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Comment the above user edited the page to add a speedy deletion template in addition, which is redundant and could interfere with the due process of this debate. I removed that template and just left the regular deletion debate template where it is. Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 04:34, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

He didn't add the speedy tag, I did, please look back in the history. If it's mostly or wholly a copy of a web page, it should have a speedy tag on it, right? I'm a bit puzzled as to why this rather poor piece of vandalism would need any due process. Tubezone 06:10, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
