Dubious existence. This article has been tagged as a hoax since August 14, 2009. I have been unable to find anything to confirm this prince's existence; however, this may be because this prince lived in the tenth century. A [http://books.google.com/books?um=1&q=%22Sutra+I%22+Israel&btnG=Search+Books Google Books search] returns false positives. I cannot verify the prince's existence. The two external links/references in the article are not reliable sources, so they cannot be used.

If one reliable source is found to prove that this is not a hoax, I will withdraw this AfD. Cunard (talk) 06:51, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

  • Whaddayaknow. I found two and added them to the article. Please have a look, Cunard, and tell me if they are false posivites. Note: I looked for Mar-Zutra, and that's probably where the article should be moved to in place of the redirect that's currently there. Drmies (talk) 21:23, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
  • Withdrawn The sources found by Drmies prove that this prince does indeed exist. Nice rescue! I'm certain that these aren't false positives because both the sources and the article discuss a prince that existed in the sixth century.

    By the way, I have also nominated Hazub for deletion as a hoax. Both Sutra I and Hazub were created by {{user|Gonçalo-Manuel}} and tagged as hoaxes by {{user|Edward321}}. I have searched for alternative titles for Hazub (Khazuv and Chatzuv) as you did at Sutra I, but have been unable to find anything substantial. Can you find sources for Hazub, too?
