Cinnamilk

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

Appears to be a hoax - current source very weak. Looks like the "product" is from a novel. (John User:Jwy talk) 18:09, 3 October 2008 (UTC) Delete the article with haste. Cinnamon is definitely a historical curative... cinnamilk is a literary device. I struck my earlier postion.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 03:30, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Thought it sounded like folk myth until I read http://www.thyroid-info.com/articles/cinnamon.htm and http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/41026.php. I do recommend removing the blogs from the article, but there is (just) enough RS to have it stay.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 18:33, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete – Just not there yet. Regarding the article itself, well written, and at first glance, well sourced.  However, the in-line cites are misleading.  When you follow the threads a majority of them deal with cinnamon and not Cinnamilk.  A for effort – D for deception.  Sorry but delete. ShoesssS Talk 20:46, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete Hoax article -- "cinnamilk" is an idea made up by a character in a book called Stupid and Contagious, see synopsis of book at Amazon —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brianlucas (talk • contribs) 01:16, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete The term "harnesses the power" should have been a dead giveaway that it was a hoax article. Undead Warrior (talk) 18:11, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete I'm in (weak) favour of having an article on this, which references the fictional novel  as the source of the idea. This particular article though is the worst sort of hoax-based bogo-science and should be deleted with extreme prejudice. Andy Dingley (talk) 23:59, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Sure, the article has some reference problems, but the phrase "Cinnamilk" has been coined in the past and sources do back up several of the article's claims. Why don't we just edit out the BS and keep the article? Drakula1112  —Preceding undated comment was added at 19:27, 7 October 2008 (UTC).
