Jaime Maussan, due to Televisa sponsorship, is more or less untouchable by mexican TV. He has promoted several well known hoaxes as true evidence (as the infamous "alien autopsy" video), and even when proven wrong, he adamantly mantains his story. I think these controversies should be adressed 189.192.44.129 21:21, 27 April 2007 (UTC) Not Signed In. 27/04/07
Everybody in Mexico make fun of him, he's a liar. - Leonel —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.146.224.196 (talk) 21:58, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
The fact that he is a fraud needs to be stated on this biography. He is well known for that, all around the world. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Larresgoit (talk • contribs) 20:05, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
I feel the controversial claims of this particular wiki article tie very much into the citations issue. That's just it... there are almost no citations and very bold claims. TwistedNine (talk) 06:29, 7 August 2017 (UTC)

Just one example: "George Adamski Rome receives prize the international." This doesn't make sense in English. At all. It stinks of bad quality automatic translation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dilettant (talk • contribs) 08:48, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
There is so much out there about this man and his alleged fraudulent actions that I suppose this article does need some rewriting and at least should be flagged to warn visitors that this man is highly controversial. I got here to find information and I was baffled that it's just a summing up of how great the man is. Is nobody watching this page?
English is not my native language and this article needs so much work that I don't feel qualified. But someone really should take a serious look at this! 82.217.111.143 (talk) 23:38, 22 June 2017 (UTC) Edit: also most documentation on him is in Spanish, which I'm not very good at. But here's an article in Snopes that debunks two recent hoaxes in which Maussan was involved: http://www.snopes.com/alien-mummy-peru/ 82.217.111.143 (talk) 23:57, 22 June 2017 (UTC)
Well your English is better than the primary author of this article. I suspect that the majority of it was written by Maussan himself. It reads like a badly-written resume more then a Wikipedia page. Prophet of nuggan (talk) 21:19, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
Snopes' article is pure disinformation. Nobody knows the origin of those mummies. Why would Maussan claim that they are of extraterrestrial origin? He doesn't, and it's not about that. There is an ongoing investigation with specialists from all around the world, and the only thing that is known so far is that the possibility of fraud has consistently been excluded, and that these corpses are different from any known living thing. Yes, a likely explanation is that they come from another world, but no one can claim that, and likewise no one can deny that possibility. Either way, this is not a claim made by Maussan, so it cannot be debunked. Bogus article, and shame on Wikipedia for gathering "information" from Snopes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DGuerra (talk • contribs) 00:52, 31 August 2021 (UTC)

WHOLE ORGANISM not an assembled puppet out of different animal or human remains. --Hob Gadling (talk) 11:01, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
But so does the video embedded along with itNo, nothing in the embedded video shows the BBC reporting that "dissected biological bodies were examined and SHOWN to be a WHOLE ORGANISM not an assembled puppet out of different animal or human remains". The video does show clips of Maussan and his accomplices speaking Spanish, but whatever claims they are making are definitely NOT being endorsed by the BBC. - LuckyLouie (talk) 15:52, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
it will hurt when you are definitively proven wrong.If you are certain the mummies will soon be proven as real humanoids and the shocking truth of our alien ancestors wholeheartedly accepted by mainstream science, why not just sit back and wait to be vindicated when it all comes to pass? Why waste so much energy trying to convince unbelievers when, shortly, the world will change and Wikipedia will change with it? - LuckyLouie (talk) 22:30, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
with logic and facts, you are arguing with ad-hominem attacks, untruths and baseless prophecies of your supposed triumph later. Stop it. We get this type of nonsense all the time, but it does not work. See WP:NPA and WP:CRYSTAL. --Hob Gadling (talk) 07:07, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
You are all clearly biasedis ad-hominem, as I said.
I am arguing with REFERENCESReferences that do not say what you claim they say. Untruths, as I said.

References
In general: many claims are made, almost non of them is corroborated with references. I am going to remove all unsubstantiated claims. Also I'll be deleting all unnecessary adverbs, like "flagship newscast". What will be left will not be much, but it may be a fresh start to add things that are proven correct. While I'll be removing a huge amount of content, I'm quite confident that this will not be marked as vandalism. I'm trying to make this article more objective and less a promotional tool for a controversial person.
Here's what I deleted and why:
I added a reference for the statement that he was awarded a Global 500 prize. 82.217.111.143 (talk) 13:33, 7 August 2017 (UTC)

"He has been linked to a number of hoaxes regarding supposed alien remains.[1]" I think it is reproachable and very grave one's name can be so easily potentially smeared by one single citation of a clearly biased article, where one claims to be a "number" of examples. Hoax implies ill faith and derision and these are serious accusations. The primary source does not cite and there is no corroboration for these alleged frauds. I think it is fair to remove that statement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.72.22.18 (talk • contribs) 12:19, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
In 2020, Maussan promoted something called Hydrotene as a miracle cure for Covid 19. Needless to say the claims for this treatment were refuted as evidence-free.
This should probably be included in the article. Some of Maussan’s associates (e.g. the “naval doctor”) were those currently involved with the latest alien mummy claims. - LuckyLouie (talk) 14:54, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
I hope this message finds you well. I'd like to discuss a specific concern related to the content in the article under the "Alien Claims" section. The paragraph in question reads as follows:
"On January 12, 2024, forensic experts with Peru's prosecutor's office who had seized a number of the figures that were not exhibited, said they were dolls that were made with paper, modern synthetic glues, metal, and human and animal bones. The lead forensic expert explained, 'They are not extraterrestrials; they are not aliens.'[10]"
My concern is that this content is both irrelevant and misleading in the context of Jamie Maussan's claims and artifacts showcased in the Mexican Congress. Here are my reasons for requesting its removal:
Lack of Relevance: The paragraph does not appear to be directly related to Jamie Maussan's claims or the artifacts he presented. Placing it under the "Alien Claims" section creates confusion, as it does not represent claims made by Jamie Maussan, but a completely different finding.
Misleading Information: The paragraph suggests a connection between the artifacts and the conclusion of forensic experts in Peru, which may not exist. This can mislead readers and detract from the accuracy of the article.
Counterproductivity: Including this unrelated information harms the overall quality and neutrality of the Wikipedia article, as it does not contribute to a better understanding of Jamie Maussan's work and claims.
I have attempted to address this concern by discussing it with @Hemiauchenia, but we have not reached a resolution. I kindly request your input on this matter. To resolve this issue, I propose the following:
Removal: Consider removing the mentioned paragraph as it is unrelated to Jamie Maussan's claims.
Relocation: If there is merit in retaining this information, it may be more appropriate to place it in a different section where it can be discussed independently and accurately.
I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to your feedback and suggestions. Let's work together to ensure the article accurately represents Jamie Maussan's work and claims. 81.170.137.91 (talk) 13:10, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
harm[ing] overall quality and neutrality of the Wikipedia articleseriously when you're adding stuff like this [6]. In that edit, you cited a random Ufologist's blog, which isn't a reliable source slightlest to counterbalance the overwhelming opinion in reliable sources that the supposed alien bodies are fake. Please read WP:FRINGE. In the meantime, I've changed the coverage of the 2024 AP story to focus instead on the separate 2017 Peru prosecutor's office report, which very directly relates to Maussan's claims.
