Hungarian national rugby league team[edit]

This is a hoax article. There is no rugby league organised competition in Hungary WWGB 02:26, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete, and someone needs to check all the students and teams for correspondence with the real world as well. Wikipedia is not for fantasy-league gaming, or whatever this is. --Dhartung | Talk 03:29, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Check the contribs for User:Eggsandham4 and User:Shimby, they appear to be further Hungarian rugby league hoax articles. --Stormie 05:38, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom Canuck85 07:00, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to Hungary national rugby union team (and then protect the redirect, ideally). --jonny-mt(t)(c) 08:09, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but there is nothing remotely similar between those two teams. One is a recognised international football team, the other exists solely in the mind of a child. WWGB 08:17, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I know they're not similar, but this would serve the dual purpose of redirecting people who search for the incorrect term to the proper page and, if the redirect was protected, prevent the hoax article from being created again. After all, I think recreation is a valid concern given the effort that has been put into this hoax article so far. --jonny-mt(t)(c) 08:38, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

after contacting the Hungarian Olympic committee (which has authority over all sports in Hungary) i found that Hungary in fact does have a national rugby league team with Australians of Hungarian origin playing for the side-this is not a hoax —Preceding unsigned comment added by Drenthe11 (talk • contribs) 12:47, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Right, and of course we will believe you! Put up your evidence or shut up. WWGB 12:58, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep this competition although played at a far lower level than the NRL or superleague is a real competition. I have been to a game played in Budapest against the Debrecen Wolves —Preceding unsigned comment added by Launcestonhurtunta (talk • contribs) 21:11, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • • — Launcestonhurtunta (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. - by the way, the repeated creating of accounts just to try to keep this hoax is not going to work, so you might as well stop. Corvus cornix 21:52, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is the current list of "Hungarian rugby league puppets": [1] [2] [3][4] [5] [6] [7] WWGB 23:54, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete this version as a hoax (some of the names give it away - "Phil McGroin", for example, I also can't find any record of their record defeat by Wales). There may in fact be some level of rugby league played in Hungary, since a lot of unexpected places play it, but it's probably a better idea to zap this one and re-create it if non-hoax material can be sourced.
