Ma-Haw-Tha-Dha

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

Not encyclopedic and not verifiable. Google search results in two unrelated hits. Crowsnest (talk) 19:31, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete as nonsense. Excite search has more than two results, but none of them appear to mention anything similar to what this article contains. WP:HOAX and WP:CSD both come into play here. GO-PCHS-NJROTC  (Messages) 19:40, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete no sources, could potentially be offensive to certain religions.--Paul McDonald (talk) 19:49, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * comment The story itself is true, it is one of the so-called Jataka tales. The questions are about the name, which is not verifiable, as well as whether this is encyclopedic. Crowsnest (talk) 19:52, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * comment if the story is true (and noteworthy) then there should be sources, shouldn't there?--Paul McDonald (talk) 20:13, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
 * See Circle of Chalk, reference 8 by Brewster. The used (Indian) name there for the judge in this story is Mahosadha. That might be Ma-Haw-Tha-Dha in some other language, which may be mispelled, I don't know. Also see on Google books. Crowsnest (talk) 20:33, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
