Odin's Globe

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

I've declined a speedy for hoax on this, but feel it needs attention. It is still unreferenced after a year of existence, and two users have expressed doubts on the talk page. I've never heard of this globe, and can't see anything reliable on Google. There are two mentions in stories, but these are not notable enough for inclusion.

Delete - unsourced after a year of existence and Google only mentions the "globe" on Marvel-related websites, this article may not be blatant, but may not meet WP:N. The Snowager-is awake 16:58, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - This globe is referenced in passing in a DC comic, but that does not make it notable. --Frmorrison (talk) 19:33, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete (speedy, even on the basis of its being unreferenced regardless of hoax status). Imho, "I've never heard of this globe, and can't see anything reliable on Google" is not the right approach. If the creator didn't provide references, speedy it (unless you are willing and able to go out of your way to fix it for them, but that then makes you the effective article creator) --dab (𒁳) 10:06, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - If this isn't a hoax, then there is a shockingly large disregard for this aspect of Norse mythology as not only is there no coverage in reliable sources, there isn't even any coverage in unreliable sources. -- Whpq (talk) 00:30, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
