Pink Crust (Avril Lavigne album)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Article is of unverifiable nature, based on unreliable conjecture citing no sources, though a Google search results in unreliable sources using the possible-hoax name "Pink Crust". Possible disparagement toward artist. Correct, updated, and verified information on the fourth studio album can be found on the Avril Lavigne article.

Delete. Looks like a hoax, at least according to The Boston Phoenix: "several news sources, among them Billboard, have reported that [Avril's] upcoming album will be titled Pink Crust. If you're thinking that that's just a little too gross to be true. . .you're correct. As near as I can figure, that title was posted as a joke on an Avril Lavigne fan site, and credulous publications reported it as fact." If it's not a hoax, it still violates WP:CRYSTAL, as no reliable sources confirm a track listing or release date. Gongshow ^Talk 06:56, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:HOAX. And although an article about a hoax can be legitimate, this does not remotely appear to be notable enough as a hoax/joke to warrant one. Glenfarclas (talk) 08:12, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete through being a Wp:HOAX. (Although I supppose it should have a little mention when her album gets an article.) DitzyNizzy (aka Jess)|(talk to me)|(What I've done) 16:36, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:HOAX and WP:CRYSTALBALL. No reliable sources to confirm the track listing, nor for the release date, and several sources confirm this to be a hoax. The Thing // Talk // Contribs 21:03, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - even if it's not a WP:HOAX, WP:HAMMERTIME/WP:CRYSTAL applies. Cocytus [»talk«] 00:38, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
