Gape gate

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Suspected hoax, though not blatant enough for CSD-G3. No hits on scientific article databases, nor in google books. Catfish Jim  &#38; the soapdish  12:09, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete My searches revealed nothing of interest that would match. Includes an apparent typo for and as per the note on the article talk page this seems to be based on a conversation overheard one day rather than anything verifiable and consequently fails WP:V and possibly the guidance of WP:MADEUP. Other hoax indicators seem to be the pseudoscientific but nonsense words, ,  and femorus bravis. Fæ (talk) 12:24, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - Complete hoax, as evidenced by the many misspellings in the article. "Gate" should be "gait", "tibiosarus" should be "tibiotarsus", etc. Additionally, there are no Google hits to show that it exists. Reaper Eternal (talk) 13:04, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
