Dashboard Effect
Neologism for lucid dreaming sleep paralysis. I couldn't find any relevant google hits. &mdash;Cryptic (talk) 00:03, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. It was doing quite well until the last sentence. However, I can't get any ghits for things like "Dashboard effect" sleep or "dashboard effect" awake, so reckon it's either a 'logism or slang I've not heard of. Either way, do not redirect. -Splash 00:05, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Neologism. Amren (talk)  00:38, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep/Clean up - I've heard of it on a few paranormal phenomena-related TV specials, I believe it was on the History Channel. UniReb 00:48, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Did they use the term "dashboard effect" for it? --DavidConrad 03:39, 3 September 2005 (UTC)


 * Merge with sleep paralysis if some reference can be found. Crypticfirefly 01:29, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep & Clean up. Its seems notable.  Journalist C./ Holla @ me! 
 * Journalist, could you please indicate in at least some of your "keep, it seems notable" votes what it is about the article being discussed that makes you think it's notable? Or is everything ever written in Wikipedia notable?  Zoe 22:01, September 3, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete and do not redirect unless it can be verified. Is there anything here that isn't already covered by sleep paralysis? --DavidConrad 03:39, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, I believe the author is referring to lucid dreaming. -- Kjkolb 05:40, September 3, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete with NO redirect, unless some credible reference suddenly pops up. Even then, no more than a redirect.  Joyous  (talk) 20:45, September 3, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, no redirect, unless verified. Dpbsmith (talk) 23:22, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Unsourced claims. Possible neologism and original research. Quale 18:25, 5 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Neologism. / Peter Isotalo 19:15, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
