Gorboth

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Probable hoax, I doubt the references given really say anything about this character. Virtually the only Google hits are to video game and modern fantasy related sites. I'm listing here rather than proposing for deletion on the off chance someone turns anything real up about this. Cúchullain t/ c 19:11, 20 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete as nominator.--Cúchullain t/ c 19:11, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - smells iffy, and you'd expect more confirming references from Google Books for such a detailed story. I'm very suspicious at the failure to give the full title of the Ward & Kuntz reference: the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Deities & Demigods Cyclopedia. Tearlach 23:13, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Even though, according to an Amazon review, this Cyclopedia thing does contain "Gods from past and present real life religions", it doesn't sound exactly like an authoritative source. As for Curtain's Myths and Folklore of Ireland, Google books doesn't seem to find any reference to Gorboth in the book, and there's no mention of it in the previewed index.

 * Delete. As per above and my observations on the article Talk page. The only reason I didn't nominate it myself at once was the miniscule chance that some obscure character of this name exists in Irish folklore (not mythology); but even if he does the content of this article is patently pure nonsense (and I'm being polite!).
