The speedy that I put on the article was declined. I put a speedy tag on it because it looks like a hoax and because I couldn't find any sources. The admin that declined it said that not having any hits does not show that it is a hoax. In this case, I think that it does because the article says that Michael Overby was a voice actor in many films and won an award many times. It is very strange that I couldn't find any sources for someone this notable. Schuym1 (talk) 23:45, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete He's not in the IMDB. I know it's not a reliable source, but you'd think an actor with that many credits would have something. He's also not listed among the ADDY award winners since 1992, but then those are given to ad agencies, not actors. Rklear (talk) 00:48, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete Searching Lexis Nexis for paper sources with the combos ("michael overby" "voice actor"), ("michael overby" "voice"), and ("michael overby" "film") only yielded a handful of unrelated links and the very first didn't get anything. This is unverifiable with both web and paper sources. - Mgm|^(talk) 09:03, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - after a bit of searching, this article fails verifiability in spectacular fashion. -- Whpq (talk) 17:21, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
