Blatant hoax. "屌" means "fuck" in Chinese. References given are shams. The author, User:Sifu-keith, has made numerous disruptive edits, refer to his contribs and talk page. This is not the first time this user has created nonsense pages. Also note that he is a youth (refer to userpage), and probably created this page as a bad joke. I'm surprised this article has lasted so long, since 00:37, 29 April 2008, and no one has noticed. -- 李博杰  | —Talk contribs email guestbook complaints 12:04, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: This entire page is based on references about a surname from Zambia, examples of people given include "屌和", a homonym for "fuck me" (屌我), "屌文", which is "fuck man", and "屌李", resembling "屌你" (fuck you). For more about the Chinese profanity, see Diu (Cantonese). Also note that in Standard Mandarin and Standard Cantonese there is no "l" final. User claims to be the chairman of some lameass organization, amid other nonsense created to Osama Bin Laden and other articles. Also refer to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sifu keith tv. -- 李博杰  | —Talk contribs email guestbook complaints 12:13, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete does appear to be a hoax. The only sites that verify people having this name at all (the first ref and the Pierre Dil link) are actually about non-Chinese people, so they're irrelevant, and the History section, while written in a serious tone, does read like a joke. The dead giveaway, though, is all the made-up people in the "Notable Figures" section. rʨanaɢ ^talk/_contribs 12:33, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• De-hoax (if that's an option...?) remove all references to this being a "Chinese name" and reduce it to the referenced material. Then move to to Dil (surname). I'll do this myself if people think it's a appropriate. Sillyfolkboy (talk) (edits) 14:36, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • It's such a rare surname there would not really be anything article-worthy to keep. Once the hoax material is removed, there will be nothing left. rʨanaɢ ^talk/_contribs 16:15, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as hoax. References are bogus. No non-hoax content worth salvaging. KuyaBriBri^Talk 14:51, 21 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - hoax. Could probably even be speedy deleted as blatant vandalism.--Danaman5 (talk) 14:59, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
