Smart Game 2008

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Speedied twice as a non-notable event and/or hoax, and unspeedied by User:Amamamamama with no explanation. Earlier attempts to create similar articles about Smart Game tournaments in October were suggested to be hoaxes, at User talk:Efan8, with User:Fram saying "I couldn't find a single shred of evidence for any of them, which is strange for an annual event in the US with 10 to 20 thousand spectators", presumably referring to a claim which the current article is choosing not to make.

 * Speedy delete as G3 and salt. Tagged as such. I actually tagged it as such before the speedy got removed, but then content was added. Either way, this is quite blatant. The biggest red flag is that the event is claimed to take place at the "American Airlines Center in Chicago, Illinois". The problem is that the American Airlines Center is in Dallas (and is the home of the Dallas Mavericks), not in Chicago, unless the article creator meant the United Center (home of the Chicago Bulls). Either way, very suspicious. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 23:44, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
