Social IQ score of bacteria

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The page appears to just restate what's in a single scientist's paper. All other references are tangential to the page topic. Searching on GScholar shows this term doesn't seem to have been adopted outside the Ben-Jacob lab. Topic is mentioned in some press releases from scientist's home university, but doesn't meet WP:GNG (not covered in independent sources). Ajpolino (talk) 04:10, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Merge to Eshel Ben-Jacob. Some good material but not enough secondary coverage for a standalone article. -- Elmidae (talk · contribs) 10:57, 16 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete. Not even mergable, just an individual's attempt to put a cute spin. The cuteness is obvious fdrom the contsnts of the article, which talk about bacteria as if they were conscious and make comparisons with humans.  DGG ( talk ) 22:21, 20 April 2018 (UTC)
