Arlanson Airport

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Article appears to me to be a hoax. No references are given. The name of the airport, the map coordinates given, the IATA and ICAO codes and place names are from all over the world. Further, though I was alive at the time, I don't recall any 1969 Japanese boomings of that size anywhere. Google search is negative. LilHelpa (talk) 15:55, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as hoax. There is no evidence that Arlanson, the place that this airport supposedly serves, is even a place. (Also, the photo used here implies this airport, whose coordinates place it in Indonesia, sells tickets for the Narita Express, the train that serves Narita International Airport in Japan.) --Metropolitan90 (talk) 16:40, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as hoax per Metropolitan90. Lots of work put into this hoax it appears.  --Oakshade (talk) 16:59, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete as obvious hoax. If "the Japanese", or anybody else, had killed 905,000 people in a "booming," it would be a nearly Holocaust-class atrocity. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 18:12, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete hoax; no sourcing. The code "QARL" does not seem to be valid, and likely isn't. OSbornarfcontribs. 18:18, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete, and speedily, as an obvious hoax. Extra credit should be given for creativity and effort, though. First Light (talk) 21:55, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
