Zenichi Shimbashi[edit]

This article was initiated by an anonymous user with a history of vandalism. KF requested verification on 14 Dec but has received no response. A google search returns only ambiguous evidence that this person even existed (all hits appearing to be derivative of the Wikipedia article on Japanese Canadians). Delete unless the contents of this article can be verified. Rossami (talk) 23:36, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Weak Keep Seems to have existed and been slightly notable as a "well-known Japanese Canadian" TigerShark 00:05, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete only Google mentions seem to be from Wikipedia mirrors or Wkipedia-sourced articles. Based on Rossami's assertions, assume likely hoax. Even if not hoax, seems well beyond any reasonable notability criteria. Joining the army and growing fruit doesn't equal notability.

  • Delete. Notability not established. LizardWizard 00:53, Feb 8, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, not notable, possible hoax. Megan1967 07:25, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, nothing about this content is encyclopedic and the writing tone indicates a possible hoax or rant. Wyss 20:39, 8 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Delete unless verifiable outside evidence of his existence, and notability in the Japanese Canadian community, is found. Samaritan 13:33, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)
