Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/ZZZ

 This page is an archive of the discussion about the proposed deletion of the article below. This page is no longer live. Further comments should be made on the article's talk page rather than here so that this page is preserved as an historic record. The result of the debate was delete, apparently as a speedy. Deletion log shows:
 * 17:53, 7 Jan 2005 Wile E. Heresiarch deleted ZZZ (speed delete: silly vandalism and patent nonsense)
 * 20:59, 6 Jan 2005 Rfl restored "ZZZ"
 * 02:48, 5 Jan 2005 Rfl deleted ZZZ (moved to WP:-) - was: "(nonsense template) Zanzibar zealous zygote ...")
 * 14:53, 4 Jan 2005 Rmhermen deleted ZZZ (content was: '(nonsense template) Zanzibar zealous zygote')

ZZZ
I am unable to verify any of the information in this article. Looks like a hoax to me. &mdash; &#1051;&#1080;&#1074;&#1072;&#1081; | &#x263a; 21:56, 6 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * I concur. Delete. I found several Winston Gopaul's on Google, but none that fit this description. Reads almost like a non sequitor. 23skidoo 00:58, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)

 * To verify the information in this article one only has to search Google for "Hulmut Unger" ZZZ. Not surprisingly, it returns nothing and suggests: Did you mean: "Helmut Unger" ZZZ&mdash;which also returns nothing. This article has already been deleted twice: Rmhermen deleted it on January 4, and I deleted it on January 5. This were both speedy deletions when the article was marked as patent nonsense. See the article&rsquo;s history and its deletion log (the most recent entry&mdash;Rfl restored "ZZZ"&mdash;means that I have just restored the revision history of previous deleted versions). The copy of this article is now included in Bad jokes and other deleted nonsense, as I have already written on January 5 in Talk:ZZZ. This article was written by 66.184.196.138 whose only contributions to Wikipedia were reposting the ZZZ article   , removing the Votes for deletion notice , and posting the comment &ldquo;I remember hearing about this in college in 1978. I am going to check through some old notebooks before I can pass judgement on this being nonsense. GoPaul and the Gerbelate were familiar however.&rdquo; on Talk:ZZZ  (for the record, Google doesn&rsquo;t know anything about Gerbelate). If you think that it is not patent nonsense and its deletion should be subject to voting&mdash;in which case you might want to remove it from WP:BJAODN&mdash;then my vote is Delete.

 * I tagged this as a speedy when it said only "Z.Z.Z. Zanzibar Zealous Zygote" but the author evidently thought it worthwhile to expand it and remove the tag. It's highly unlikely there were any such 'indigenous tribes' in Zanzibar because it's actually quite a small island, and because of a fairly strategic position it was colonised very early (1503). Nothing in this article checks out. Delete and chuckle. Dbiv 03:18, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete delete as vandalism/hoax (gerbelate? ...how obvious can this be?). Wyss 03:38, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Snoring just because it'd be funny. -- Cyrius|&#9998; 06:18, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Patent nonsense. Speedy delete.Martg76 15:55, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
 * Speed deleted as silly vandalism and patent nonsense. Wile E. Heresiarch 21:55, 7 Jan 2005 (UTC)
