2011 Nanchang mass suicide protest

 * – ( View AfD View log )

An obvious hoax. The title of the article clearly says this event was based on "mass suicide", but there is no evidence this was the case if one traces the reliable sources (if any). Normchou  💬 18:08, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete Per WP:NOTNEWS, local internet hoaxes are not worthy of an article. Jumpytoo Talk 03:09, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete The article itself says that "Mr Jiang (蔣) and his son were responsible for spreading the false suicide news", so even the article itself calls its own validity into question. Also per the reasoning of Spiderone and Normchou. Pub  Syr  🌲C. 🐦T. 12:30, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
