Charles Fort on mysterious appearances and disappearances

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

"Charles Fort coined the term "teleportation" to cover mysterious appearances and disappearances of people or objects" Sounds like original research to me. I don't think there's need for a separate article to explain what mr. Fort thinks about disappearances.  &gt; R a d i a n t &lt;  11:04, 12 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge salvageable material to Charles Fort and, if appropriate other articles about paranormal theories. --Dweller 11:50, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge as per above Alf Photoman  15:44, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
 * merge provided that it can be shown to be more than original research Cornell Rockey 16:20, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Which, the article or Charles Fort's research? --Dweller 16:22, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
 * The information in this article. Its completely unreferenced.  Lets hope Charles Fort was actually conducting original research when he did his experiments, because otherwise it would be 'academic' plagiarism.  Very little of Charles Fort on mysterious appearances and disappearances is salvageable, now that I look at it more carefully.  Its mostly a tangent essay that just invokes his name.

 * Delete as OR essay. No proof is given that any of this is linked to Charles Fort.  Do not merge into teleportation, as that's a far better article that already covers most of what's salvageable here (very little).  -- Black Falcon 17:16, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
