Ambulothanatophobia

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Nonnotable neologism for gear fear of zombies. Not a single ref to serious sources - 7-bubёn >t 19:04, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete — and I thought this was an article about zombies having gears (made correction). Anyways, I cannot find any reliable about this neologism after doing a quick Google search here; the references are nonreliable or otherwise primary sources. I should also note on the side that it does not bode well when the first Google hit is an Urban Dictionary entry. MuZemike 20:11, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete No Google News, books or Scholar hits. WP:MADEUP. -Atmoz (talk) 15:55, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Nothing on scirus or PubMed, either. The article states that it is an essentially made up word, but searching for "Zombie phobia" turns up nothing notable, either, rendering even the basis of the article dubious. (Which isn't to say that it never happens, just that there is no apparent basis for the claims made about it in the article). Anaxial (talk) 19:58, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
