Talk:Camaya Coast

Speedy deletion
I am submitting this article for speedy deletion because I believe it is pure vandalism. Although there is a Camaya Coast, the rest of the article is made up. I checked and tried to verify all the references, although they may look legitimate, they were all written to deceive. There is no such thing as Bataan Museum of History and Bataan Library of Local History. There are no newspapers like the Bataan Morning News, Bataan Evening News or Bataan Daily Express - all created. Please check them on the internet. Some of the offline references are not convincing and incomplete. The sections are well written using real people and events to parallel with his story to make it convincing. Camaya Coast is actually a new resort development (four to five years old - Leisure Resort), as you can see in the recent pictures in the article, located at the isolated end of the National Road of Bataan province. But the way it was portrayed is like its been there since the 19th century. Camaya is not a suburb of Mariveles, Bataan as Mariveles is not a big city. Camaya is not even a barangay. It is just a Sitio of Barangay Biaan. But in the article, several events and places were made up and blown up to be more interesting, like the barangay becoming a Hacienda Biaan, a Wain Estate, a tsunami in 1948, European immigration to the community, some bikini decency law between 1935 to 1961, a 1985 Guinness world record bikini photoshoot, the City to Surf race in Australia transposed to Camaya, to be included in the National Heritage list, a 1959 movie based on a book filmed in the area, a Miss Camaya beauty pageant - these are all not true.

One of the images in the article,, was submitted by the same author as taken by somebody who died 100 years ago to pass up as a public domain, but it is in color and the caption in the picture on the article says 'Wain Cove, 1950s.' I also believe it is a fake picture as it does not match the other recent pictures. The 1950s picture is a more populated beach but in the recent pictures, it is a deserted beach. I hope this is enough proof, I'm just protecting the integrity of Wikipedia. Thanks. Briarfallen (talk) 09:10, 5 April 2012 (UTC)


 * I am resubmitting this for deletion. The first time I submitted this was for Speedy deletion, but according to User:Scottywong, it did not pass as vandalism (History) but it is more of an elaborate hoax and to resubmit to Afd.  The page Camaya Coast is very well written with fictional stories made to sound like a typical community.  All of the references are fake made to look real. Thanks.

Not Hoax
There is actually Bataan Museum of History and Bataan Library of Local History. Both are located in the Engineering building of the Municipal Hall complex of Mariveles. The museum and library are in fact just one room in that building. Though they are not big, I can assure you that these are their official names.This is not a hoax but more like a advertisement for the resort/subdivision which is currently being developed in the area of Camaya Coast.

PS Camaya Coast is different from Camaya. Sitio Camaya is on the right side of our school. Camaya Coast on the other hand is at the opposite side of the hills near Porto. There is also a Camaya Point which is different from the two. You see, historically, Mariveles was divided into different districts in the Spanish time and one them is called Camaya. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.85.21.251 (talk) 05:50, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
