Goby disease
Only one Google hit. Sounds like nonsense, anyway. RickK 06:15, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep - Until I see definite prrof it doesn't exist, I think it should be kept. Google hits mean nothing. Tsuyoshikentsu 06:25, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * How am I supposed to prove a negative? Like I said, only ONE Google hit.  If this is so common, why aren't there more hits?  Also note that the above User is the creator of the VFD listed articles PhoenixFeathers and Hedgehog (zine).  Seems like a retaliation vote, to me. RickK 06:34, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Self-evident nonsense: "Alternative treatments include finding supernovae". Wolfman 06:41, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - This reeks of silly. One line in the article reads: "The symptoms are not unlike those of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, or Echolalia."  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't find a damned thing in common between those three medical problems.  I suspect this article was written by a fish enthusiast as some kind of joke.

 * Delete nonsense. Gazpacho 07:20, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Deletion is the cure for this silly hoax: ...the only treatment includes expensive but cheap drugs from Canada. Alternative treatments include finding supernovae. jni 08:17, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Nonsense. Trilobite (Talk) 14:32, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete, prank, borders on a speedy but it's harmless to careful readers. Wyss 20:11, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Warning of bogusness placed on page. - Nunh-huh 00:12, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Bogusness? I always thought it was bogosity.  :)  RickK 00:14, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
 * Either way, it's definitely bogolicious.... - Nunh-huh 00:15, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Speed deleted as silly vandalism. Wile E. Heresiarch 07:31, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
