No.

The Who is a different band.

Arisians don't exist.

There, it is on the interwebs

Therefore, it is a fact.

The Eddorians told me the Arisians exist, and Eddorians wouldn't lie to me.

RE: Prove the Arisians don't exist.
How does anyone prove that something claimed to exist doesn't exist? Maybe in mathematics that can be done, I'm not sure ... seems the non-existence of something is more likely something that can only be established to be increasingly probable. Not sure.

It is easy. If it doesn't agree with my world view, it is clearly fabricated gibberish.

Usually, by demonstrating - either factually or definitionally - that the claimed something is absurd, impossible, etc. A frequent example is the 'married bachelor'.

Yes, logical contradictions and internally incoherent stuff would seem good candidates for disproof.

That would be an informal proof. 'Cause there seem to be a lot of them.
