Rollac

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

The article appears to be a WP:HOAX. An extensive search of the internet finds no use of the term "rollac" in the context of clothing. Also none of the other terminology in the article - lutter and nim -- can be found either. A question at the WP reference desk determined the word does not appear in the second-edition OED. I have been unable to locate the sourced book The History of the Rollac. Without any clear references, I suspect the article may be a hoax by the SPA creator. — Cactus Writer |   needles  15:31, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per failure of WP:V. If Gwen Owens's History of the Rollac exists, WorldCat has no knowledge of it. This has to be cosidered a hoax unless some reliable sources containing information about this item can be shown to exist. Deor (talk) 15:39, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete as an apparent hoax. It's the responsibility of the creator of the article to provide verifiable sources, and none of the mentioned references seem to be accessible or support the article's content. ~ mazca  t 15:50, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
