Toraka
Appears to be hoax character in video game. No source information. Zero relevant Ghits. Gogo Dodo 23:11, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
 * A past copy of the article was recently created at Toraka (Mortal Kombat). I redirected the page to Toraka.  Should this AfD succeed, this page should also be deleted. -- Gogo Dodo 00:51, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

-Refer to the discussion page for Toraka. Source information is provided. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tundra X (talk • contribs) http://www.kamidogu.com/images/mka/screenshot_007.jpg For those people who thinks this is Toraka, are stupids. It's just a Konquest NPC. Most likely a Brother of Shadow.--Inplax 00:09, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete This is a hoax/fake. The image is a concept from Killzone 2, and why would Blaze need a protector? He's good enough to defend himself. I say, delete it.
 * Comment No it isn't. There are links to a couple web pages, but there's nothing on those pages about Toraka. Fan-1967 23:19, 5 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Unverifiable, almost certainly hoax. Fan-1967 23:19, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete This isn't the first time MK characters that don't exist have been given an article. If, by an amazing stretch, a Wikipedian discovered "Toraka" before the very devoted fansites, I apologise but I can't believe that right now.  Worse, I found this via GameFAQs where someone was passing it off as real (whether they believed it to be or not)- that undermines Wikipedia as a whole.  --L T Dangerous 23:34, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete No source has been provided for this character's name, storyline, or the exact image used in the article. RobWill80 12:18, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete I've been trying to push for a source, and it hasn't been provided. EVula 19:59, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment LOOK IN THE DISCUSSION PAGE. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tundra X (talk • contribs)
 * Comment The image in the article did not come from any screenshot at the link you gave. Also, there is still no evidence of a name or storyline for this character. RobWill80 01:45, 7 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete Was confirmed by Midway Forums moderator Cinder as being fake. Pugman3000 21:57, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Like everything related to this article, there is no source provided for that claim. EVula 22:32, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment If "Cinder" is accepted as a source, the statement in question is post #6 in this thread at Midway Boards. Hopefully, this information is suitable enough for the purposes of this discussion. RobWill80 23:37, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I have provided a source and Cinder is an accepted form for recieving news, because he is closly affiliated with Midway and provides the OFFICIAL renders for all Mortal Kombat games. Pugman3000 01:14, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment I know that "Cinder" is widely accepted as a reliable source of news for the MK community, and I personally believe him. However, WP:RS suggests that message boards should generally be avoided as sources of information in articles. This is why I said "If [he] is accepted". RobWill80 01:45, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment Well, Cinder is the official source for plenty of other information. The information is coming from him first, a message board second. Just my opinion. EVula 05:30, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
