The Polar Bear

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

Article about a nonnotable band that fails WP:BAND. Nothing in the "history" section is able to be verified with a quick google search (was hip hop and heavy metal even around in the 1950's?) Their website is in primitive condition and is definitly not that of a famous 50 year old band.  Them From  Space  00:26, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete Looks to be hoax, but really is plain vandalism . Of course there was no heavy metal, nor hip hop then--the entire article is nonsense, and should have been speedied as vandalism. JNW (talk) 00:57, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Article does not meed our standards for notability as it is not mentioned in reliable, third party sources (or anywhere at all, for that matter).  tempo di valse  [☎]  01:40, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: No such thing as "heavy metal" in the 1950's. South Bay    (talk) 02:40, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Hoax, and a pretty obvious one at that. No bands are together for 50 years and make millions of dollars without anyone noticing. Second, "but was paralized from the testicles up" is an odd sentence from the article as no one is paralyzed like that. He only has use of his legs? Paralysis doesn't work like that, as there isn't a brain in your feet. Also, heavy metal was not around in the '50s, like South Bay pointed out. Tavix | Talk  02:48, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - very obvious feeble hoax -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:08, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as hoax for hip hop heavy metal from the 1950s to the 2000s. Hekerui (talk) 18:29, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
