Death bird[edit]

I can find nothing about this book on Google or WorldCat. "tkaclo hork" are not possible Aztec words; Aztec for "death bird" would have been miquiztototl. Possible hoax, or if not, some unfortunate editor is reading very unreliable sources. Ptcamn (talk) 03:23, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete as per db-nonsense - really? carrying little kids away to feed it's chicks? - this shouldnt have gone through the AfD process though. Fattyjwoods ^{(Push my button)} 03:34, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as probable hoax. A look through the page creator's edits makes me think this was a vandalism-only account (and only active as such on one day). All edits besides this one were definitely vandalism. Chances are this was, too. Aleta ^Sing 03:41, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete. Considering the only cited source is a book that doesn't exist and a search for the subject under its Aztec name results in Wikipedia, a mirror, and some forum post from someone referencing Wikipedia, this is clear db-nonsense. Tagging as such. Celarnor ^{Talk to me} 04:46, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
