Draft:Dragonfruit (band)

 * – (View MfD)

I, in hindsight, realized that this draft is probably a hoax. It has no sources whatsoever, and none of the songs listed as being written by this band appear to be real. The Billboard Hot 100 has never had a single song written by this band, even though this article claims that. JJP...MASTER![talk to] JJP... master? 13:04, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Left in draftspace, it can be safely ignored, and left for G13. “Probable hoax” implies an investigation is needed.  —SmokeyJoe (talk) 01:15, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * A hoax requiring investigation means that it is not a blatant one and would not be eligible for speedy deletion, but we should not be tolerating hoaxes in draft space and leaving them for G13. -- Whpq (talk) 14:22, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * You’re assuming it is a hoax. Should every unverifiable garage band in draft be brought to mfd as a hoax? -SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:10, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I am NOT assuming this is a hoax. You don't have a hit song in the Billboard top 10 without anybody taking any notice of it whatsoever.  Non-blatant hoaxes that have been investigated is different from an obscure garage band that nobody has ever heard of.  The former should be taken to MFD (was done here) and the latter can be ignored in draft space. -- Whpq (talk) 21:38, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I hadn’t carefully read to the last two sentences. The beginning was entirely possible without likely webhits. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 01:13, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as a probable hoax. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 21:16, 19 December 2020 (UTC). Agree with nom that the Billboard Hot 100 claim makes it an easy hoax. At least partially. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 01:15, 20 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete - Google search for Dragonfruit band finds other bands, but not this one. This is consistent with the hoax idea.  Robert McClenon (talk) 04:00, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
