The article has no references and I can't find any evidence that this person ever existed Racklever (talk) 15:32, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, appears to be a possible WP:HOAX, for example Comintern in 1970? No hits on google books at all. --Soman (talk) 16:44, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Zero sources. Xxanthippe (talk) 21:46, 20 March 2013 (UTC).[reply]
Delete. Fails WP:V. There are a few hits for "Ehsan Malik" in Google books but none of them match. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:41, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:HOAX. Wanted to see how long one can remain on WP. Apparently a full 7 days. Good deduction on part of Signor Soman, though. Thank you for the amusement. Ciao, SocialRanger (talk) 01:54, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. - I shall not take offence if one of your dear administrators chooses to ban my account. I have had my fun and have no further use of it. As it is plainly obvious, I have no respect for Wikipedia, so any "positive" future contribution is highly doubtful. SocialRanger (talk) 01:59, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Another P.S. - attention may perhaps be directed to Category:Pakistani Arabs, which is a duplicate of Category:Pakistani people of Arab descent. SocialRanger (talk) 02:05, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete as an admitted hoax by article creator. Closing admin is asked to block SocialRanger as well. Ray^Talk 03:14, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia hoaxes are pathetic. If they survive for any length of time it just means that nobody has found them to be of interest. Once they come under scrutiny they get exposed and deleted like this one. Xxanthippe (talk) 03:25, 22 March 2013 (UTC).[reply]

Ur right. I should have tried something more ambitious, so I would have the privilege of being banned by an ArbCom decision. Ah, the bureaucracy! SocialRanger (talk) 03:29, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As miniscule as my contribution is, I should at least go down in the list of banned users as a polite WP:TROLL. SocialRanger (talk) 03:32, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete per WP:GCSD criterion G3 -- it's a blatant hoax. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 18:30, 22 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
