[WikiEN-l] False AfD Nominations

Here's another example of a perhaps not false but "bad faith" nom.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:
Articles_for_deletion/List_of_pseudosciences_and_pseudoscientific_concepts

What really smells about this one is that the nominating account,
"Pizzazz" was created on the same day as the nomination and the only
thing he did was make the nom in question. I would have no problem
with promptly closing such noms regardless of the potential
"deletability" of the article.

If an article is to be destroyed, then let it start with a good faith
nomination from a real user, not somebody's sock/meat puppet.

PS. The article in question was speedy kept.
