The Hammet Cult

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No reliable sources; may be an ad or a hoax. John Nagle (talk) 07:37, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

This article came up at WP:COIN, and appeared to be a promotion for a movie in development. The only sources are sites affiliated with the movie. The people mentioned on those sites as being involved with some murder cult don't come up in Google searches. There are no relevant news items. There's nothing in reliable sources. Or even semi-reliable sources. Something that newsworthy which happened in 2011 would have news coverage. Looks like WP:HOAX and WP:AD. Thanks. John Nagle (talk) 07:45, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete as hoax (WP:G3): if, as the article claims, some of those people were convinced of a crime in 2011, surely it would be easy to find a link to the judgement. The absence of such sources constitutes in my opinion "blatant and obvious disinformation". As people may disagree with this argument from silence, I did not put the Speedy deletion tag myself.

 * Speedy delete as hoax (WP:G3). The article is possibly promotional material for a "mockumentary production". - Location (talk) 14:06, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete as a hoax and a gross misuse of Wikipedia. Adverting for a supposed mockumentary film. Source even explains lack of coverage by reliable sources. No reliable evidence found that the film or the event is real. • Gene93k (talk) 17:37, 28 March 2015 (UTC)
