WP:HOAX. I've actually seen several draftspace or AFC articles in the past several months that were connected in some way to this purported band, all of which were completely unsourced and unsourceable — including three albums, four other television series ("The Simons", "Dog Days", "Just Shut Up!" and "Leonardo & Friends") that Patrick Johnson and Michael Sullivan were purportedly involved in creating, several individual "episodes" of those series and some voice actors from their casts. All of which proved completely
unverifiable, right across the board, if I or any other established Wikipedian attempted to locate any sourcing for them whatsoever. On more than one occasion, the articles would be recreated a second or third time, in exactly the same form and still completely lacking for any sourceability whatsoever, after being deleted as unverifiable hoaxes. And even the band's nationality varied from American to Australian to Brazilian depending on which article, and which version of it, you happened to have in front of you at any given time. I'm also adding some other related pages to this nomination — there's not much point in conducting several separate discussions at the same time about a batch of interrelated pages that all suffer from the same total unverifiability problem. Delete all.

This user is in Brazil. "The Simons" made it into pt.wikipedia. If anyone speaks Portuguese, you should probably start looking around there. I found that one, but I didn't go any further because I didn't know the Portuguese word for "hoax" :)

In the process of researching the three "PJ5" albums that I dealt with last year, I found that all three of them had articles on pt as well — I don't speak Portuguese either, but I was able to get them shitcanned by posting in English to a basic help page so that they were brought to the attention of someone better equipped to navigate the process. I'll look into this again right now.

Delete as mentioned, certainly questionable.
