Andrew curtis wade

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

There is an assertion of notability, Professional Baseball player and perrenial allstar, but I can't find any sources to back up the claims made. The article is a direct copy of a personal website and the only source that corroborates any of the information in the article. The article appears to be a hoax and should be deleted as such.

 * Comment - Please note, I deleted the stuff that was copied directly from Geocities so the article has changed since being nominated - check the history or Geocities link for the original content/claims of notability. Somno (talk) 01:16, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as hoax. The stuff on the Geocities page is a load of hooey, the box score linked in the article shows that no player named Wade played that day, and the baseball-reference.com list of all players includes no Andrew Wade. Deor (talk) 01:59, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Hoax. No such player listed on the Phillies website. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MadScot (talk • contribs) 03:09, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete If isn't Andrew Curtis Wade, I'll eat my hat. JuJube (talk) 06:21, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Perhaps speedy delete as a blatant hoax? The text that Somno rightly deleted claims that wade hit the home run that made Philadelphia win Game 2 of the 1983 National League Championship Series, but Los Angeles actually won that game.  Nyttend (talk) 13:28, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. Never made the majors per baseball reference, and not listed in their (probably incomplete) minor league listings, either.-- Fabrictramp |  talk to me  21:17, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as hoax. Bio is a crude cut-and-paste job. Alansohn (talk) 21:32, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
