Mandela Effect

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The only "evidence" for this effect appears to come from one site created by a self-described "full-time paranormal investigator with somewhat renegade ideas." While there are a few citations, they all appear to trace back to said site, which is backed up by little to no scientific evidence. Seems to be a fringe theory that doesn't meet the notability guidelines, seeing as the only time it got any exposure was eight years later in a debate about the title of a children's book series.

 * Delete. No reliable sources. I thought that Yogi Berra was already dead. Bearian (talk) 20:28, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I can understand you voting delete, but don't say there's no reliable sources. All of the ones in the article are tried and true reliable sources, such as the The A.V. Club.-- Gen. Quon   (Talk)   00:42, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
