Shiraz Corp.

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

Another hoax company article. Badly written and spelled and improbable sounding; there just might have been some truth in it, but a few checks show that there isn't.The founder, Dana Shiraz, is said to be worth $13.2 bn, but is not in the Forbes list, and searching Forbes for her produces no result. A Google search for Shiraz Corp produces only a surgical supplies business in Scottsdale, AZ. Author has no edits but this article, apart from two in February and an attempt today to insert "Dana Shiraz" into List of the 100 wealthiest people. Delete as hoax.

 * Delete per nom. The improbability of this being legitimate seems insurmountable. Jclemens (talk) 19:37, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Reads more like a math problem than a real article. If Dana Shiraz inherits $6 million from her father and invests 16% of that in diamond exploration, how much does she have left in her savings account? Pburka (talk) 19:47, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete Looks like a hoax. A google search on "Dana Shiraz" and "Shiraz Corp." turns up only this page. Hobit (talk) 22:08, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
