Lachansky-Yang Theory

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unbelievable mess of an article, quite possibly a hoax since it doesn't appear to be covered anywhere except on this page. Sources in article (they both link to the same page) mention neither the theory nor its creators. There are also bits and bobs from all over the place thrown in - the infobox is for military equipment, there's a random cast list at the bottom of the page, naming someone who isnt mentioned anywhere else, and the References section is - well, go and see for yourself. Totally unsuited for inclusion on Wikipedia. Yunshui 雲 &zwj; 水  10:09, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete with a blunt axe. It's either a deliberate joke, or an extremely stoned stream-of-consciousness rant that doesn't belong here. Note the helpful Onion "reference" at the end of the article . I've heard that Chinese readers don't always quite get the Onion's satirical humour, but this simply looks like a student prank. Note also this attempt at humour at the talk page by one of the contributors. No mention of the subject online: yes, I actually bothered to look, heaven knows why.
