Looking at this gang, this article looks extremely thought out. Everything supposedly looks legitimate. But the only problem, however, is that this gang does not exist. The picture of the gang member in the article, doesn't exist. The references this article cites do not mention the "C.O.D Boyz". The first reference and the fourth are generic gang information. The second and third references are dead links. The fifth is a parked domain. The sixth reference is a medical handbook. None of these mention this local gang in Connecticut. 2 out of 3 of the sections only refer to the Bloods gang. The first section, covers mostly the Bloods, mentioning "C.O.D Boyz" in a minor way. In fact, the lead in section states that they are "widely known for [affiliating] with the Bloods." Definitely not notable, not verifiable, and overall, not covering the subject it is supposed to cover. 123chess456 ( talk) 17:00, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
- Delete Contributor took the Bloods article and pasted the COD stuff on top of it. The references don't reference COD Boyz. Vanity article, probable hoax. Nomming for speedy-delete instead. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 18:35, 20 March 2014 (UTC)
