Ricketwrist

This looks like a hoax. The references cited do not support the text: the second has no mention of it; the first is about toxicodendron radicans or poison ivy but makes no mention of "ricketwrist". We also draw a blank in Google and Google Scholar. The author has no other edits. At best, it is unsourced. Delete. JohnCD (talk) 22:38, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete - does seem to meet WP:HOAX. Google turns up zero references, and cited sources do not relate to subject. — Cactus Writer |   needles  22:47, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Prune or rather, Delete - I agree this seems like a hoax. The article is also written in an improper tone. Ancemy (talk) 23:48, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Probable hoax. I could find nothing on a botany club at the University of Denver or on a Yale Botanical Society . Sources do not back up text. - Atmoz (talk) 18:49, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
