Psilocybe kurac

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

An entry under this name may have existed briefly in the UniProt database, but I notice that the "failed verification" tag was added to the article the day after it was created.

The putative taxonomic authorities for this name did indeed publish a number of names in the genus Psilocybe, but this one was probably not among them. .

When I enter the supposed specific epithet 'kurac' into Google Translate it proffers only the suggestion that it is a Bosnian slang word for the penis, which is not the kind of "epithet" one would hope for. William Avery (talk) 11:23, 31 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete as failing WP:V - not coming up with much. I will note that Kurac is a spice (drug) dealing house in Armageddon (MUD) . Icewhiz (talk) 12:16, 31 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - no hits in any databases, no mention in the literature, no search results except circular links. Based on the etymology suggested above, probably a hoax. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 13:21, 31 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per above - nothing in the linked source, and nothing on Google except for Wikipedia mirrors. I skimmed the Uniprot database to see if "kurac" was a typo for something, and while I'm not a fungus expert I couldn't find any plausible candidates. SpicyMilkBoy (talk) 13:43, 31 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete - you've made a fair point, I think I must have been delerious writing this article. Next time I'll make sure my information is legitimate. Thank you. BluePankow BluePankow   ✉  14:13, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
