The Ghosts of Chernobyl

Author admits to not having sources. Encylopedias by definition are not places for personal essays but for well documented articles.  Strong Delete. Postcard Cathy 17:20, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT 14:15, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * The following text was in the article. I moved it here as it related to the discussion. Tizio 14:27, 5 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Since I have been warned by a bot and cannot delete/report this document I would like to clarify.


 * Chernobyl did in fact have a meltdown in reactor number 4 due to power usage experiments.
 * The reactor melted down due to the fact that their was minimal to no power going to the cooling turbines.
 * Since the turbines stopped suppling water the core temp became critical melting and burning the graphite control rods.
 * The heat caused by this fast reacting accident melted the cover to the core itself releasing radiation into the atmosphere.


 * This article is extremely flawed as their is no story officially or unofficially that I could find, nor were the sources sited for this document. So I warn you be alive this article at your own risk it is in no way true or reliably represents the truth behind the Chernobyl disaster. User:Solaris17


 * I have removed from the article anything that would be reasonably covered in Chernobyl disaster. Tizio 14:27, 5 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete since it is uncited, and if there are any citations of ghost stories, there's already Chernobyl in popular consciousness which could be used to hold the information. I would say merge, but lacking citations, and given the quality of the article, there's no real reason to do that.  FrozenPurpleCube 15:20, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Give the author time to provide references for these ghost stories. Anthony Appleyard 15:22, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as essentially nonsense. Unreferenced and there's really no need for having a new article for every ghost sighting. Pascal.Tesson 15:23, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete: Per nom. To user:Anthony Appleyard, the editor already admitted to not having any sources, so finding any for such a trivial article will be for a waste.  Seicer  (talk) (contribs) 16:06, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, apparent fabrication unless proved otherwise.--JyriL talk 16:46, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete and I strongly suspect that this is a spam teaser page for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl. -  irides centi   (talk to me!)  20:32, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as unverified and unverifiable.--Isotope23 18:46, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
