Fritz Carlton

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This WP:BLP is unverifiable; the subject and his theories appear to be completely made up. There are no pertinent Google hits except the subject's own conspiracy theory website http://dotheyexist.com, claiming to be hosted by the University of Königsberg, which apparently no longer exists since after World War II. Compare also Articles for deletion/Embe about a related article by the same hoaxer.  Sandstein  21:17, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm unable to find any independent sources for this at all, and the affiliation with a nonexistent university doesn't help. Fails WP:V. (One wonders whether he has a colleague named Waldorph Astoria.) Deor (talk) 22:14, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom and Doer's comments. Königsberg hasn't existed since WW2.  --Mr. Vernon (talk) 02:46, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Academics and educators-related deletion discussions.   —David Eppstein (talk) 04:30, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete If not a hoax, then fails WP:V. Given the probability that it is a hoax, perhaps the portrait should be removed following WP:BLP, as that could show a real person. --Crusio (talk) 05:03, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Studied not at Oxford nor Cambridge but at Oxbridge? Works at Königsberg? Hoax. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:35, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as hoax. Edward321 (talk) 14:56, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Does not seem to pass notability requirements under WP:PROF or WP:BIO, probably due to not existing in the real world. “Carlton” a German name? Yeah right!--Eric Yurken (talk) 02:23, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
