Hoax: There is no limestone on Rousay and 'Fraestar' is not mentioned in any of the claimed sources. No ghits. No sign of it on RCAHMS. Ben MacDui 16:15, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

• Delete Each of the references does not mention 'Fraestar', this must be made-up. Frmorrison (talk) 16:40, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

• Delete – per nom. A hoax. Could've probably been speedied (if that's a word). United States Man (talk) 05:02, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
  • Comment I certainly thought about a speedy but my guess was that as I am one of the few Wikipedians who has been to Rousay and it took me ten minutes of checking to be sure, that a passing admin would likely decline on the grounds that it wasn't an obvious hoax. Another feature of the article is that there is, let's say, some similarity of interests amongst the editors. I may look into this further if time permits. Ben MacDui 09:17, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. An elaborate hoax, but appears to be a hoax nonetheless. I wondered if it might perhaps be better known under a different name, but as far as I can tell none of the tombs on Rousay are in the location described here. --Deskford (talk) 13:15, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
