Delete I would argue that this page is eligible for Speedy deletion under WP:CSD#G5 as a page created by a confirmed sockpuppet -- TRS NYC (talk · contribs) (a confirmed sock of Horizontal Law) and that all substantial edits since its creation have been by other members of the same sock farm. However, the creator was not banned at the time of this article's creation, so G5 might not apply. However, the article is clearly a hoax, and the hoaxter's are going to a great deal of trouble to try to legitimize it, including the creation of a fake news website (see WP:Articles for deletion/Merhoff Post) and now, a fake blog site (Locotorp.com was created by the same company that created Merhoffpost.com (compare their "whois" records), and, apart from the single entry on Visby, consists entirely of content stolen from other websites).
