 * Merge - It may be worth a mention on the general hypnosis page. I can't see that there is enough information for its own article. Bali88 (talk) 01:11, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete One more paranoia-tinged article from the extremely active [sock farm] apparently on a mission to warn of the dangers of electromagnetic radiation, government eavesdropping, and hypnosis by phone. G-book hits show brief mentions of it as a seldom-used technique, but I don't see any RS sources that treat it in such an in depth fashion that would warrant a standalone article on the topic. - LuckyLouie (talk) 01:30, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. No real evidence of notability - and the article is making claims with regard to the medical efficacy of telephone hypnosis which aren't even remotely compliant with WP:MEDRS. I seriously doubt that there is enough legitimately-sourced content to make a merge meaningful. AndyTheGrump (talk) 13:21, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. Appears to be a WP:FRINGE theory and also fails from a lack of reliable sources. mikeman67 (talk) 15:12, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete; it's impossible to write a neutral article when the topic is neglected by reliable sources. bobrayner (talk) 18:11, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete I have the special power of "admin hypnosis". I have thus hypnotised the closing admin to delete this on the basis that it is complete, unadulterated bollocks. Please apply a suction microphone to your telephone and then adjust your tinfoil hat. —Tom Morris (talk) 17:09, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
