Tepa x3
Does this famous notable gang exist? The article claims a 50-year history, hundreds of members in prison &mdash; but apart from a MySpace page and a few incoherent chat posts google doesn't seem to know them. The two books cited as sources aren't on google either. Weregerbil 12:38, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Given that it's a gang, it may be hard to establish notability, but given the research of the nom I smell something hoaxy. Delete. BigHaz 13:03, 29 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete. 502 ghits (starting with such noteworthy sites as Youtube and Myspace!), 0 gnews hits . Appears to fail WP:BIO. Luna Santin 13:21, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Does WP:BIO apply to groups or purported groups? Just curious, more than anything else. BigHaz 13:24, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't call it a perfect fit, but in this case I'd say it gets the same points across. For some discussions, WP:ORG would be more appropriate. That's my opinion, anyway. Good question. :) Luna Santin 13:34, 29 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete IMO a gang would have to generate at least a few news articles to be worthy of an article. Has to be something that's known not just in one city of area. -Royalguard11Talk 00:34, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
