I found the creator of this article adding a link to this at List of conspiracy theories - " another theory claims that this story is just part of a disinformation campaign to prevent or delay the disclosure of an extraterrestrial skeleton." Even the article has no reliable sources calling it a skeleton, and the lead says it is 'the unofficial name'. I have done a search and find no evidence that it meets WP:Notability.

- No other sources have been found, so it does not meet notability criteria for its own article. However, it might merit mention under another related Moon article. I recommend merging with South_Pole-Aitken_basin article or De_Gerlache_(crater) article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ka2uya2ep (talk • contribs) 09:56, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

CommentI couldn't find a source for this name; it seems like OR. Hence I'm not sure a merge would be a good idea.—RJH (talk) 17:32, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]- Comment Without a reliable source the article might as well claim the moon is made of cheese. -- Kheider (talk) 18:13, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Original research, unsourced, possibly even bordering on a hoax. The feature in question doesn't even look like a skeleton. Why did you do it (talk) 20:59, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete The content of the article and the content of the cited references fail to distinguish this from something some kid just made up. -- Ed (Edgar181) 22:21, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - apparently original research/made up, lacking any third-party references. Robofish (talk) 02:31, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
