No trace of this phrase in Google Books, other than wp mirrors. Given the (blocked) user name of the creator I imagine it relates to a girl name Tamsyn. In ictu oculi (talk) 08:14, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Delete Heck of a lot or mirrors of this, but the term doesn't even translate to what is claimed - on Google Translate at least. 'Tam' is apparently 'three', and 'syn' doesn't register ('sin' gives 'sine' in English). Given that this was created by a blocked (for username Poop555) account, I'd say probable hoax or vandalism. Oddly, the best matches I can find for these words are in Czech, Polish and Slovak, where 'tam syn' translates as 'son there' or 'there son'. Not really relevant.

To take the translation check further, "người từ chối cúi đầu trước" is the Vietnamese for "Person I refuse to bow to" (and it back-translates as "who refused to bow to the"). Peridon (talk) 18:27, 23 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as a hoax - see Google Translate. Bearian (talk) 20:11, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

P.S., for the record, I was the admin who blocked the creator three years ago. Just doing my job mopping up messes, folks. Bearian (talk) 20:14, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Possible hoax, no sources, no evidence of notability. CodeTheorist (talk) 12:02, 29 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
