Bassil Mikdadi
Unverifiable vanity... but does make claims to notability. W.marsh 02:34, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Wow, some page.. Would indeed be notable if this wasn't a total hoax, patent nonsense and great A7 Speedy Delete nn vanity bio candidate. Nice photoshop attempt with the pic... Deiz 02:54, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. That pic is totally photoshopped.  Ha ha boys.  --Lockley 05:50, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment, no vote. If this is a hoax it's a first-rate BJAODN article. Zunaid 13:26, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Agreed, BJAODN needs a subcategory for "Incredibly elaborate hoax / vanity articles complete with doctored photos, claims of international sporting prowess and allegations of affairs with royalty" just to do it justice. Nice try to save it "unsigned" but don't bother... Deiz 22:48, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Pic looks legit, I've heard of him before... although I don't think he ever appeared with the first team in a competitive match. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.92.62.193 (talk • contribs)
 * Delete per nom. Unverifiable and almost certainly a hoax.--Isotope23 20:36, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete. Claims to play for a lesser Madrid side, yet is shown in a photoshopped photo with the head of Roberto Carlos visible.  Claims to have been tabbed to play for NUMEROUS national sides?  I think wikipedia should add "Tool" for reasons to delete a page.Batman2005 01:35, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's what Wikipedia needs: CSD:A9 author/subject is a tool.--Isotope23 17:43, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * In a blatant attempt to tone down the article, the above "65.92.62.193" removed some text from the piece which claimed he had been capped for the first team. Unfortunately (as seen from Batman's comment) now people will wonder how you got your pic taken with Roberto Carlos... Still doesn't explain the claims of "fair features" which "have led him to having godlike status", guess you ain't quite a miracle worker with the photoshop yet Basto.. Admins, please put this hoaxer out of his misery Deiz 01:46, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Somehow, I get the impression that this is Mr. Mikdadi's attempt to score with the ladies by making himself an "international sex idol"... What a pathetic person. To the Pits with ye. --Agamemnon2 08:20, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete The line: "Although relatively unknown outside of Las Rozas, Mikdadi is famous in the Arab World because of his playboy lifestyle" says it all. HOAX! Carlossuarez46 21:09, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment The IP address that removed a substantial portion of this obvious hoax resolves to Montreal, Canada. Curiously, the only people who support this oulandish claim are the IP Address "65.92.62.193" and the article creator.  Most definitely the same person.  Perhaps Mr. Mikdadi should spend less time on wikipedia and more time thinking up believeable hoaxes. Batman2005 05:39, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
