Mental Arts
This seems to be a fake. Google doesn't provide any reliable hits for "îthari order" beside some obscure forums. Zinnmann 09:01, 18 September 2005 (UTC)


 * Of course it doesn't since this was once a secret art; there are't yet many informations about this in the internet. There was an article like this in the German Wikipedia that was (insolently) deleted even though many of my German colleagues told the administration that it was no fake. I find it rather disturbing that it is still not accepted. So how many more people have to come and tell you that we're not faking around? There are Thousands of people, more than enough I'd say... --Paosa 15:40, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete - unverifiable, and highly improbable. There's nothing on Google for "Îthari Order", and nothing for "Allen McCloud" and "Mental Arts".... secrecy notwithstanding, if this were a 40,000 strong movement, that would be very strange. TheMadBaron 16:28, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Probabilities aren't applicable here; what you think to be likely/unlikely is only your business. As far as I'm informed, McCloud is a member of the German Wiki; he's keeping himself out of this discussion though. --Paosa 18:40, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. "Secret" equals "unverifiable" equals unencyclopedic.  Or a hoax.  --A D Monroe III 20:24, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Insolently voting delete. And what's an analogon?  User:Zoe|(talk) 22:50, 18 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete unverifiable and stupid. I made up dumb shit like this when I was a dorky kid too but I didn't waste other people's time posting it on Wikipedia. (Which didn't exist.) — Phil Welch 02:55, 19 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete as a probable hoax.Vizjim 11:00, 19 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Some secret societies are verfiable. This one doesn't seem to be. --Ashenai 11:03, 19 September 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Likely hoax. --Fire Star 17:34, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
 * keep. A friend of mine is mental artist, therefore it's no hoax. --84.176.96.31 19:04, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
