Why is there no WP article on Jarno Smeets?

• Man Takes Flight on Self-Designed, Human-Powered Wings
• Man flies using “human bird wings”
• Dutch engineer 'flies' using android-powered bird wings in viral video
• MUST SEE VIDEO | Man flies like a bird

Well......because it was a hoax.......

Isn't the hoax notable if it got in The Register?

It is a reliable source isn't it?

Even with Orlowski and Metz writing there?

Then there should be a "Jarno Smeets hoax" article, no?



Yes, as we all know, The Register is an important part of the mainstream media.

And Snopes is probably a reliable source too.
