Shango (of Shangistan)
hoax, no Google hits Travelbird 13:41, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * just because there are no Google hits, doesn't mean it's a hoax. References to the newspaper stories are true, I think it would be unfair to delete this entry so hastily. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Explorer2000 (talk • contribs).

 * Please see our policy. If we cannot prove it's true, we must delete it. If it's true, then you should be able to provide references that prove it's true. Sorry, but we can't just take your word for it. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 16:54, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete; I find 168 google results, but this does not confer notability in my opinion. —   pd_THOR  undefined | 16:31, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Not least because many (possibly all) of those results refer to people who bear no resemblance to the figure described in the article. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 16:54, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:V: unreferenced and unverifiable. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 16:54, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, hoax. A reporter for a newspaper, supposedly, should show up on google somewhere. --PresN 17:34, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:HOAX. --Slgr @ ndson (page - messages - contribs) 18:21, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, garbage from Garbagestan. NawlinWiki 18:47, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as likely WP:HOAX due to lack of WP:V from WP:RS. Remove this from Wikipedia and deport it back to Shangistan. -- Kinu t /c  19:07, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete The band Shango needs an article. The spider genus Shango needs an article. Shango of Shangistan? Not so much. GassyGuy 22:08, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
