The Ussuri republic
Apparent hoax. The 'references' provided do not mention any 'Ussuri republic' or 'Battle of the Ussuri River'; Google does not return any results for either apart from Wikipedia mirrors. Reading the article for Mikhail Frunze, it seems quite unlikely he was in the Russian Far East in 1920, since he was involved in battles elsewhere at that time. This calls the accuracy of the whole article into question. (It was created in its entirety on January 18 by User:Ussri Bobby.) If the information in it cannot be verified, it should be considered a hoax and deleted. Terraxos (talk) 02:07, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete G3 (blatant hoax/misinformation), so tagged. I couldn't find any information about this supposed republic either; the utter lack of sources seems to indicate that this is indeed a hoax. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 02:14, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment This is ridiculous! This article is a hoax and this article has survived on Wikipedia for two months! The creator of this article (User:Ussri Bobby) should be blocked from editing. Masterpiece2000 (talk) 03:50, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment Blocking the user may be kind of pointless, however as he/she as been inactive since January 18 2008.  Vivio Testa rossa   Talk Who 06:26, 25 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete Lets get rid of it, but it is clear what it purports to say, so it is not blatant nonsense, & not a speedy. 08:05, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, unverifiable and almost certainly a hoax. --Snigbrook ( talk ) 14:01, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
