Pop culture pathology

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The article does not have proper sources, and a Google search turns up nothing related at all. There is a very good chance that this is a hoax, but even if it isn't, without proper verification, the article cannot be allowed here. See WP:V for the verification policy, and WP:HOAX for information about what we think of hoaxes. Thank you. NightlyHelper (talk) 17:28, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete as per WP:G3 as a hoax. Looking for the "Botto Experiment" turns up nothing except this article. It may also be of note that the article creator worked on nothing else. XOR&#39;easter (talk) 19:16, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete I tagged this as a pretty certain hoax not long ago. Mccapra (talk) 19:36, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Speedy Delete - This is without question a hoax. There is an utter lack of any sources corroborating a single piece of information here, and the description of the supposed experiment is completely ludicrous. Rorshacma (talk) 23:35, 25 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I've warned the main creator of the article for creating hoaxes, as the community consensus is overwhelmingly in favor of "this is a hoax". NightlyHelper (talk) 00:41, 26 September 2019 (UTC)


 * Yet another example of an IP making well-intentioned but misplaced edits raising a concern about verifiability in this article years ago, only to be reverted as a vandal. (I have seen this with other hoax articles, but I can't remember which ones right now.) So there has been at least some suspicion surrounding the accuracy of this article for almost 7 years.

 *  Delete Not a serious article. without proper sources, I believe it’s a hoax. Nikoo.Amini (talk) 00:11, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
