WP:Teahouse#10 year old hoax?. I suspect this 10 year old article might be a hoax. Google searches don't turn up much and that seems unusual even after considering the obscurity of the topic. TryKid (talk) 18:08, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

- Delete I could not find anything, even with a search of a large university library's database.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 19:28, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - the only mention I could find is that this is related to a Mayan legend called Itzamna, not Incan. And the Mayan Itzamna is a god, not a creation myth. [[1]] Fails WP:GNG, and without any clearer cited connection, doesn't even warrant a redirect to Itzamna. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 21:09, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. Assuming good faith (unlikely but possible) this isn't a hoax but a garbled misunderstanding of the Izanami and Izanagi creation myth (the Shinto equivalents to Adam and Eve), but that's a Japanese myth with no connection to South America, and we already have (for once, when it comes to a mythology topic) existing halfway-decent articles on the topic with actual sources. ‑ Iridescent 20:22, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. No sources whatsoever mention this. Zoozaz1 22:35, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - Subject qualifies as non-notable due to lack of sources/significant coverage. The only source is too unreliable to be used and I couldn't find anything else. Kori (@) 23:21, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - I can see only one source--Vitalpantaryan (talk) 14:51, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
