Unsourced article making dubious claims that a vulgar word in Norwegian "someone has claimed" is a place in Norway. Search finds nothing to confirm exsistance. Probably a hoax. Arsenikk ^(talk) 13:21, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. Among the 84,000 Norwegian place name in GNS, there is no Tissefant. Supposedly this place has a harbour and more than 1,000 inhabitants, so I would have expected it to be included if it were real. – Sadalmelik ☎ 19:47, 12 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete. There's essentially two claims here... I don't know Nerwegian, but some online translators give tisse=pee, so the vulgar usage may well be true, but is deletable per WP:DICDEF. The editor who created this article has no other edits. The claim about the worlds smallest bench was introduced by an IP and originally claimed that the bench is made of spaghetti[1]. The article on no-wiki (no:Sarpsborg) does not mention Tissefant, and google does not find any information about Tissefant+Sarpsborg (though I'm struggling with Norwegian text). Not verifiable. – Sadalmelik ☎ 09:27, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as unsourced, and a likely hoax. --Lockley (talk) 23:43, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
