Circle Of Fireballs

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Ridiculously non-notable comic book character which may not even exist. Searching for "Circle Of Fireballs" "s-men comics" on Google Books, News, and News archives turns up nothing. A general Google search for the term turns up only Wikipedia and Facebook. Admins, please consider closing early per WP:IAR, WP:SNOW, and WP:MADEUP. CtP (t • c) 17:29, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. I did a search and came up with nothing. I don't think that this is a hoax as much as it's a case of someone of a very young age coming up with their own comic book character via an online game and decided to add it to Wikipedia. While I commend the young man for his imagination, Wikipedia is not a place to showcase characters that you came up with one day, so as such it needs to be deleted. Sorry kiddo, but thems the rules. I recommend that you look into putting your stories on fanfiction.net instead. Tokyogirl79 (talk) 17:38, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete I searched this and came up with nothing. It definitely fails notability, so I believe it should be deleted. Eire102 (talk) 21:56, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Unfortunately, I too am voting delete because I haven't found anything substantial with Google News (as well as a desperate search through the main Google search engine) to support this aside from one Facebook page. SwisterTwister   talk  22:34, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - not sure it's a hoax, but there seems to be so few reliable sources to verify notability so as to suggest it barely exists or has only recently come into existence. Either way, nowhere near WP:N. Stalwart 111  (talk) 02:55, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. According to the text itself, this was an individual's self-written bio for a character in the (now defunct) City of Heroes MMORPG.  It doesn't exist in any published form, as far as I can tell, much less one with substantial third-party coverage.  Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 15:26, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Snow Delete - Fails WP:N and WP:GNG. Found zero coverage in reliable sources after several cursory searches. Northamerica1000(talk) 06:23, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per, well, WP:SNOW. The article's title pretty much says it all. An article about character made up by someone in one day with only a Facebook page as a source can't possibly survive through, well, a Circle Of Fireballs. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:45, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
