Bobbyist Caliphate State of River Laurel (miconation)
hoax --AbsolutDan (talk) 05:07, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete and I'll provide the context AbsolutDan leaves out: Yet another NN micronation trying to muscle their way onto Wikipedia. Deprodded by User:Osloboslo (article creator) with reason of "this no hoax, its mentioned in the suwanee newspaper and on micronations.net". Bobbyist gets 372 G-hits; Bobbyist Caliphate State of River (I left out the "Laurel" because it's repeatedly mis-spelled in the article) gets zero. The story of its creation sounds like BJAODN material. It is the only page that links to any of its bobbyist-related redlinks. Morgan Wick 05:18, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete, if not speedy. The article is completely ridiculous (it looks like it was created by some kid), and its subject is unverifiable (nothing on the sites mentioned on the talk page). There is also a template here that needs to go. --Core des at talk. o.o;; 05:23, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Looking over the article creator's edit history, it seems that the user has a history of making nonsense edits to various articles (in fact, the vast majority of his edits are nonsense edits). He also added "Bobbyism" to List of fictional religions, I removed it as blatant vanity. --Core des at talk. o.o;; 05:36, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete A very small percentage of micronations merit articles. This isn't part of that group. GassyGuy 06:33, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete there are maybe 2 or 3 notable micronations. This isn't one of them.  Zero Google hits, etc. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  11:38, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
