Hoax. Several things about this article seem to match an actual actor/doctor named "John Forbs" who is in grey's anatomy (same as the name of the author of the article.). Every other aspect of the article seem to be a complete fabrication. The article claims his son is an actor yet brought back no relevant Ghits. Every single movie that is not wikilinked is also fabricated. Trusilver (talk) 07:28, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Do Not Delete. Give the creator a chance to fix his article. Also, it is believed that John Forbs was a mistaken spelling of the person's name. Forbes with an e is the correct way to spell the name, as I know John Forbes and his wife Evelyn, not Gena. Reallifematters (talk) 09:57, 18 January 2008


  • DO NOT DELETE MY ARTICLE. I admit that this seems too good to be true, but I assure you that I am finding evidence to claim some of the information about Dr. Forbes' life and career. John Forbs is my name, his is spelled with an e, not without. That is why I found it necessary to create this page about the actor. Rest assured that if I cannot find any proof out there that the said actor does not exist, I will help you to delete this article as I take this very, very Seriously. But in the meantime, Do not delete this page. The references are piling up on John Forbes, M.D. John Forbs (talk) 10:01 18 January 2008
