Wikipedia talk:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia/Stephen Thanabalan

WP:HOAX?
Is there a reliable source anywhere that shows that this person is who he is claimed to be in this article and other wikipedia articles? If one does a search of wikipedia, one finds scads of articles with statements like, "according to an article by Stephen Thanabalan in (Rolling Stone/Wizard Comix/World Soccer Magazine/JazzImprov Magazine/New Wine Magazine/etc./etc.)...." The problem is that actual sources (issues, page numbers, etc.) are never given and I can't find any evidence of this guy's writing outside of wikipedia. When one searches a database of Rolling Stone for the name "Thanabalan", no results are found. -MrFizyx 20:46, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
