Sophophobia

The topic of the article is a neologism, based solely on non-reliable websites. As noted at List of phobias, there are many unreliable lists of phobias that can be found online. Wikipedia's policies require that there be reliable sources that discuss a named phobia, before we create an article on it. Srleffler (talk) 21:30, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Delete for the same reasons mentioned at Articles for deletion/Chionophobia. A Google Scholar search for sophophobia gives some clues as to where such terms come from: books for weird words and low quality self-help books. NikosGouliaros (talk) 21:29, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
