The result was speedy delete WP:CSD blatant hoax and salt. There is such a junior player, but he did not score 31 tries for the North Tamworth Bears at age 7, or play for the Prime Minister's XIII in 2015. Crudely photoshopped image. JohnCD (talk) 19:50, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

The article seems to be a mix of a hoax, and an article about a person who fails WP:RLN, as he is not notable enough. Full marks for a creative fake photo though. Mattlore (talk) 19:10, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

Is there even a player named Jakob Tait?? I am confused there is a fake photo and a team that doesn't have a link that I have never heard of. This article does sound kinda legit though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:8003:202F:F800:FD00:EE30:8A1:4F88 (talk) 02:38, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

Jakob Tait is real! He played in the Jr Trans Tasman for the last two years! I like him because he shares my first name and he seems like a nice bloke. It's not a hoax. I went onto some website and found the photo cause I thought it was funny. Thankyou for the marks on the photo but I didn't make it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JakobtheDaddy (talk • contribs) 13:01, 30 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete (possibly CSD A7 / CSD G11) — Seems to be a mixture of lack of notability, possible self-promotion, or just a pure hoax. The precise mixture of those factors is not particularly important, as it fails to credibly establish the minimum notability for inclusion in Wikipedia.  Infobox photo appears to be of a real person, with their face and hair changed (and certainly does not look like a 12 year old to me), so probably a copyright violation in the photo.  The career section is entirely unsourced and not credible.  The random collection of web links, presumably presented as references, include a mixture of unreliable and questionable relevance.
