Hoax?

[edit]

The accusation is based on one article in a Russian blog.Xx236 (talk) 11:34, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The site appears to be more of an online news magazine than a personal blog (although it does use the Russian word for blog). The most relevant quotes from the article (per Bing translate) appear to be:
  • "But the same native American studies contend that his biography is a fictional. And in the books is a lot of inconsistencies, which often drew the attention of specialists."
  • "Native American studies claim that the entire biography of Suplatoviča is well thought out hoax, all arranged."

Apparently in 1997, Wieczór Wybrzeża (The Evening Coast), a newspaper serving the city of Gdansk, published a series of articles about Sat-Okh titled “Fake Indian”. Unfortunately, these articles don't seem to be available online as the newspaper ceased publication in 2002. Kaldari (talk) 02:30, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The Russian journalist isn't a relaible source in Polish or Canadian matters. Xx236 (talk) 10:06, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The individual is not fictional and there has been numerous
If you will continue to read this personal blog, you will notice the article is ironical. It is that the lofe of Sat Okh was so unusual. In fact Indians think of him as a person who preserved extremely well the customs and the language of Shawnee.

Recommend deletion

[edit]

Since there are no Reliable Sources in English, the article should really be deleted. It is impossible to use sources few people can read.Parkwells (talk) 04:19, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Tens of millions can read Polish and hundreds of millions - Russian. Millions in the USA and UK can read Slavic languages. "few people"?Xx236 (talk) 10:04, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Lack of reliable sources in English (there is still a documentary in English in the article) is no reason to delete an article about a person who created first Native American and Friends Association in Europe, wrote over 10 books about life of Native Americans, translated into English, Japanese, Russian and other languages, the person who opened a museum and actually existed. How scary to think that most people just disappear completely from the pages of history just because people want to delete them, because they were NOT BOTHERED to find documents about them--81.100.242.0 (talk) 00:11, 10 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Hi there, I write this as a Pole. He wasn't born in Canada, this is his own fantasy idea. He was born in USSR Siberia in 1925, and in 1928 he moved with his mother to Radom in Poland. He bragged after Second War about his "indian origin". Polish journalist has written a book about him in 2017. https://facet.onet.pl/warto-wiedziec/czy-po-latach-wylonila-sie-prawdziwa-historia-sat-okha-jedynego-polskiego-indianina/hwzlb9v (sorry but is in Polish language only) Many people in Poland believe in his fables, because he was very popular among children and youth in 1960's-1970's. He was first time in Canada in ca. 1950-55, when he was a mariner in ship MS "Batory". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Valarhael (talkcontribs) 00:25, 30 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
