Momed Al Hawsawi

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

This article was originally tagged as db-hoax, but it isn't a blatant one. Because this article has existed since April 2008, I see no harm in having a full discussion about it. I have been unable to find any reliable sources about this athlete, so this article should be deleted per WP:BLP and WP:V. Cunard (talk) 21:21, 23 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete I too, have not found any sources about this article. Any useful information is not factual. There is no Al Hawsawi on Saudi Arabia's 2002 FIFA World Cup squad or was ever a squad member of LDU Quito (or possibly Al Hilal). Seems like a lot of the information in this article made up, possibly indicating that this person never existed. Digirami (talk) 21:59, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete It appears to be a hoax and someone who's played for LDU de Quito and in the 2002 World Cup (playing 8 matches which is actually impossible) would have some news coverage Spiderone  08:27, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete - definitely a hoax, albeit not a blatant one. FIFA, which has player records for every player to play in World Cup Qualifying, has diddly-squat for this guy - strange, isn't it? GiantSnowman 08:54, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
