 * Delete. "Sam Maguire" doesn't seem to return any dance-related anything on any of common or scholastic databases.  There's some myspace stuff about a trombone-playing high school student, a football player, and something to do with an Irish pub, but it doesn't seem like there's anything about a subject with a background similar to the one described in the article.

 * Delete. This and Nick Maguire, also the subject of a deletion discussion, would seem to be about a couple of young brothers in London. They may well exist, but there's no evidence that they meet the requirements of WP:BIO. Deor (talk) 11:08, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, I'm having trouble verifying any of the claims made in the article. Concur that it may be a hoax.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 11:37, 6 May 2008 (UTC).
 * Delete. Looks like hoax. --Anna Lincoln (talk) 15:06, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Don't Delete This is a true article. Sam and Nick are cousins and both pages are accurate, just because they aren't on MySpace doesn't mean they're not real or that these stories are fakes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Michaelmck18 (talk • contribs) 06:13, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Unfortunate telling us they're real people is not enough. If you want these articles kept, you are going to have to find reliable sources to verify the content is true and establish these subjects are notable. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and we only have articles on notable subjects. Sarah 07:12, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * So if I can find a MySpace that says this it makes it true? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Michaelmck18 (talk • contribs) 12:29, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 'Delete as an unverifiable and not notable bio. Sarah 07:12, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
