@tavie: A screenshot is not a good form of evidence. It is incredibly easy to fake not only the image content but also the actual timestamp of the file.
If I understand correctly, Mr. Ardic states that the Göbekli Tepe claim was supposed to be fictional (it's just a prank bro!). Why on earth would you publish something like that on a website that attempts to mimic an academic site? It literally has "research" in the domain name. The article section is called "publications/articles" and is formatted as if they were real academic papers with an "author" and a "publisher" column. Now I am not an academic, but to me it is pretty obvious that the visitors are supposed to take the content seriously. If you wanted to post more easy going content, a blog would be more suitable imo. I don't buy the explanation.
