Type 4/5

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Possibly GF article, on a fake topic. An invented claim for a WWII Japanese super-heavy tank, sourced to those unimpeachable paragons Reddit and World of Tanks.

As a technical concept, this makes no sense either. Japan didn't keep the major wartime projects, like Unit 731, secret long-term. It bears no commonality to Japanese tank design. The design is, if anything, a kid's doodle from reading too much about the German Maus. Andy Dingley (talk) 17:22, 15 November 2016 (UTC)


 * At best, it could be something lifted from a Japanese engineer's notes but one among many paper sketches on which nothing actually progressed. Certainly in absence of any reliable source it ought to head to the bin.GraemeLeggett (talk) 18:54, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
 * It's World of Tanks alternate universe fiction, based on the one ref. Can we Speedy this under G3, as it's fiction being presented as fact? Jergling (talk) 20:16, 15 November 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete - I found nothing RS to support this article and I removed one cite as it only linked to a blog. Kierzek (talk) 20:24, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - I've looked into it, and as far as I can tell this tank was created as a hoax for self explanatory reasons; May I just remind everyone that Wargaming has an official WorldOfTanks Wiki, where this information would be better suited. Also, I'll point out that the article has only been edited once since this deletion log was put up on 15 November 2016, despite the article needing significant improvements.

 * Delete per the above. No basis in reality. ··· 日本穣 ·  投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe ·  Join WP Japan ! 18:53, 17 November 2016 (UTC)
