Alex Karmazin

Either nonnotable or hoax. The article subject's main claim to notability is a high rating on Comedy Central's up-and-coming comedians list and as author of cracked.com articles, but no sources are provided and none was found. Searching on the name "Alex Karmazin" gives a total of 32 hits, most of them unrelated to the article. General behavior of original author is suspect, totalling a handful contributions that include several vandal edits. Also, the author used subsequent vandal content from an IP address by slightly reworking it as new article content. Judging by a comment on the author's talk page, a version of this article was previously deleted in 2007 as nonsense. Article fails WP:RS, WP:V, and notability guidelines for people.
