The result was delete, though with a heavy heart. I was looking forward to creating a redirect for Spotty Lincoln. Mojo Hand ( talk) 02:20, 30 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Bringing this to AfD to save having to replace speedy tags. This appears to be a bio, but of whom I'm not sure. The English is bad, and possibly machine translated, although I can't see how some of the things there could result from even that at its worst. No indication of notability, and at time of posting, unreferenced. Peridon ( talk) 18:25, 22 October 2014 (UTC) reply

• Delete Absolutely no idea what is going on in the article. If not for structure it could be WP:G1'ed.-- ☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(talk) 02:47, 23 October 2014 (UTC) reply
• Delete; you would think "one of the most influential figures in human history" would have an article already, and a coherent one at that. Trivialist ( talk) 10:49, 23 October 2014 (UTC) reply
• "[Keep] He is a notable person in south india, article is about true and honesty social worker plus popular politician, please do not delete page." (statement copied from the talk page of the author and posted here as a 'keep' on his behalf by Peridon ( talk) 11:47, 23 October 2014 (UTC)) reply

I've posted that for him as I think there are understanding and possibly competence problems. Peridon ( talk) 11:47, 23 October 2014 (UTC) reply

Dear Sir,

Sooner, photos will be uploaded wherein the group photo members are all alredy available in wiki, will be great evidence as a noted person.

• Holy heck, delete this wreck: I agree with Loriendrew, it's damn near a G1 speedy. No evidence this guy - presuming this isn't a hoax article - passes WP:BIO or the GNG at any level. A WP:COMPETENCE and a WP:BULLSHIT issue, too, I figure. Nha Trang 22:01, 23 October 2014 (UTC) reply

• Comment This article seems like it was put through a google translator. I wonder if this comes from somewhere else. This has quickly become my favorite wikipedia article. - Xcuref1endx ( talk) 08:04, 28 October 2014 (UTC) reply
• Comment We have a store of hoaxes, but not one for things with the delightful turn of phrase found here. I suppose that if it were written in a highly idiomatic style, things like 'raised as a silver tail' might be word for word translations. I can't see how the 'Spotty Lincoln' arises, however. I am also puzzled as to the connection between the title (and intro), and the Jhony person. Are they one and the same or not? Peridon ( talk) 13:17, 28 October 2014 (UTC) reply
