Soiling
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

This article was originally nominated for deletion on the basis that the term is not significantly different from encopresis or fecal incontinence. I'm nominating again on the same basis - that, and because it seems like even a cleanup wouldn't help this article. It's got unencyclopedic images, major tonal issues, and is based largely on one source - an unrecorded lecture given by a professor that the original contributor evidently heard and based the article upon. Adding to this, it's got a how-to section on management of the condition that definitely shouldn't be there. Some of the info in this article also contradicts the encopresis article.

 * You say the article topic is no different to encopresis and the previous AFD suggested a merge. Why hasn't the article been merged and redirected then? - Mgm|(talk) 10:26, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * There's nothing useful to merge - a lot of this is duplicate info and the rest is OR - not to mention the fact that "soiling" isn't exactly a medical term. I didn't want to blank it and redirect without consensus, though.  Graymornings (talk) 12:01, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
