Gottfried Eschenbach
Thank you for spotting this regrettably long-lived hoax. I have nominated it for deletion - formal notice below. That starts a debate, normally lasting a week, after which an uninvolved administrator will decide what to do. Your comments will be welcome there: see WP:DISCUSSAFD for a guide to how these discussions work.

This does seem to be an open-and-shut case, but for long-lived articles like this it is best to have a discussion so that the article gets several pairs of eyes; unlikely things with no apparent sources sometimes turn out to be true. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 14:57, 6 September 2014 (UTC)

Nomination of Gottfried Eschenbach for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Gottfried Eschenbach is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Gottfried Eschenbach until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. JohnCD (talk) 14:57, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
