List of hoaxes on Wikipedia


"Art is but the name we gave to our mistakes"-Vanda Varvara

Friends, As Co-Treasurer of the Bicholim Truth Brigade, I hereby nominate this article for deletion on the grounds that it is an obvious hoax. A quick DuckDuckGo search will reveal nothing but Wikipedia mirrors, and the ISBNs of the references are all Norwegian cook-books. In short, this page, as former American Gladiator Jonathan "Steel" Byrne might say, is a plumiloquent factition. It is high time that we stop lying to our grandparents about the Adyhaffe people and the Baldock Beer Disaster! Twozenhauer (talk) 18:52, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment/Keep - I dunno, man, there might be a little truth behind it. I say wait and see how it pans out before calling it an obvious hoax. It might be a hoax, it might be a real thing. I'm sure there's numerous lists of hoaxes somewhere. -G.A.WILMBROKE [ USER / ALT / TALK / CONTRIBS ] 22:10, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
