[edit] The Ghoul Catcher
Unsourced, zero Google hits for "The Ghoul Catcher", zero Google hits for "Ghoul Catcher"+1882. Can't find anything having to do with this for "Jonathan Iverson". User:Zoe|(talk) 03:34, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete. Possibly a hoax. --¿¡Exir Kamalabadi!? 04:00, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Unverifiable, might be a hoax. Perhaps it could be speedied under A7 since even the author says that the book is not notable.--Húsönd 05:57, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete I think the hoax possibility is definitely there. The references are interesting. As far as I can tell, Harrison T. Meserole didn't write a book called Early American Literature and Culture--one was written about him. Meserole's four-volume survey was called American Literature; Tradition & Innovation. The second reference in the article is even more clearly a little off. Burt Barer wrote a book called The Saint: A Complete History in Print, Radio, Film and Television of Leslie Charteris' Robin Hood of Modern Crime, Simon Templar, 1928-1992. The article references Burt Barer's The Saint: A Complete History of Print, Radio, Film, and Television. Why leave off the rest of the title? The only thing that comes to mind without being able to look at the book is that a work on the character of Simon Templar probably doesn't mention Ghostbusters. Darkspots 06:12, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete Searching British Library and Library of Congress shows nothing for 'Ghoul Catcher' or 'Jonathan Iverson'. And to think I fixed the title of this article. For shame! --Aim Here 06:36, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete as well crafted nonsense. The 'Ghostbusters' linkage is certainly in doubt (assuming the original work exists) since the film is based on what is claimed to be original material. I'm going to remove the claim and link from that article until this AFD is resolved. Kuru talk 16:49, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete as possible hoax, and otherwise unverified. -Royalguard11(Talk·Desk·Review Me!) 03:43, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, if nothing can be found to verify this.--Cúchullain t/c 03:39, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
