Funtasy Island

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Contested PROD. Article started as a copy and paste of another article, and since being challenged with a PROD has been reduced to an unsourced article about a commercial venture in Indonesia/Singapore. Of questionable notability.  role player 20:16, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment if we can source the statement about the "world largest eco park and resort", which shouldn't be hard if it's true, this would be an easy keep. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  22:17, 22 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - "Funtasy Island" cannot be the original name of this island. It's likely a late-20th century marketing affectation.  I would like to know the actual name and look that up.  So far I can't figure that out.--Oakshade (talk) 00:42, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - if you put the co-ordinates in the article into google earth, and then compare the resultant island group that comes up to this map that has been removed from the article since afd nomination, you can clearly see the outline of the southern group of islands, and a sand bank where the northern "future development" should be. I think this shows that at least when this image on google earth was captured this park didn't exist.  No doubt these islands do or did have names, though it seems more unlikely that any of them are called "Funtasy Island". --  role player 12:53, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
 * PS The satellite image on google earth was taken in 2010. --  role player 12:55, 23 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete - I can find no coverage about this in reliable sources. It appears to be a planned resort that has yet to be built.  I found this web site which appears to be written by somebody whose native language is not English.  It is written as if it already exists, and as if it is being planned.  However, the images on the site all look to be artist's rederings of what the place would look like, and I doubt their rates would be $1 per night. -- Whpq (talk) 17:46, 24 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per the research above. This appears not to exist and this article is perhaps part of some kind of investment sales pitch. --Oakshade (talk) 20:37, 24 September 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment The same group are offering RM0.80 (US$0.26 ) for bunk bed per night and RM8.80 (US$2.85) for single bed room for their assisting hotel StayOrange Hotel, so the $1 per night why is not possible?. karmoh - 1:48pm, 25 September 2010 (UTC)
