Jimmy Russels

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Fails the notability guidelines for biographical articles. Supplied sourcing does not cover the article's topic, and a Google search did not reveal any reliable sourcing. I'll withdraw if anybody else has better luck finding sourcing of the article's topic (which, in my opinion, would not be sourcing that only covers the meme, loose relationship the meme has with this actual person withstanding). ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡ bomb  03:19, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

It should be noted that El Espectáculo de Jimmy Russels was largely forgotten to time due to the fact that its first episode failed to air due to Jimmy Russels dying of a heart attack during the shooting of the first episode. I worked in the Canal 13 headquarters custodial staff for a number of years and was instructed to throw away documents about the show. I happened to be in the live audience that witnessed Jimmy Russel have his heart attack and decided to save the documents. Now, having immigrated to the United States, I have the internet and the means to share my information about Jimmy with the world. I have lost the documents I had about the show, along with the video from the first episode during my move to the States, however, i will try to find them and upload them as soon as possible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Moonikwa (talk • contribs) 03:39, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment I have to say, this was a clever and creative bit of fabrication. I suppose I'll withdraw my nomination and nominate this instead as a candidate for speedy deletion as a blatant and obvious hoax -- at least, obvious to anybody who spends more than the few minutes I did researching this. There should be an additional caveat in WP:BEFORE suggesting that before you take seriously something that clearly has no reliable sources, you should establish that the thing you are taking seriously isn't, in fact, a joke :). ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡ  bomb  04:27, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
