Clear example of a spoof article on a non-existent entity Damac (talk) 19:05, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Rapid delete: When this article was first created, the subject's date of birth was given as "1 october, 1964". Now its "1 October 1988". The article's creator has never contributed anything else nor has another one of the page's supporters (User talk:Jispir) been up to much. A Google search produces very little in terms of independent, reliable sources. We've even had claims that this guy appeared on Southpark.--Damac (talk) 19:13, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
 * G3 With all the absurd claims being made about this guy, and given the total lack of sources, I would say it's very likely a WP:HOAX blatant misinformation even if the person really does exist (they do have a Freewebs website at least). So tagged. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 19:24, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Visual arts-related deletions. – David Eppstein (talk) 02:02, 14 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete Given the lack of third-party sources and the WP:BLP policy, the unique claims about the "19-year-old Greek art prodigy who is now pursuing a music career in the Netherlands" should be immediately removed if not substantiated. This is either promotional, a hoax, or suffers from notability problems... either way, it should go. --Marcinjeske (talk) 04:05, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. As there are no reliable sources cited, I am persuaded that the article does not comply with the verifiability policy. Stifle (talk) 18:37, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
