H1Z1 Virus

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

Little-known Internet hoax that fails to meet notability/verifiability criteria -- no independent coverage in multiple reliable sources, original hoax page no longer seems to exist. The LA Weekly article is the only mention I can find outside of the blogosphere, and that's a mention in passing in an article about something else. The Anome (talk) 08:25, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete H1Z1=hizzy, slang those crazy kids these days use to describe what is a "house". Or the Z stands for "zombie". Whatever the case, this is complete bollocks and pretty much leads to a story describing more the book Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 09:11, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete - delete; but not speedy. Let this stay for a week, so any idiot that can't tell the difference between a blog and a newspaper can see that Wikipedia is calling it a hoax. But this is unencyclopedic non-notable stupidity and if it were not for thousands of blog postings asking "Is this real?" I'd go for speedy delete. WAS 4.250 (talk) 15:35, 10 June 2009 (UTC)
