No reliable secondary sources to support notability. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 07:16, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. No WP:MEDRS to back up medical claims. Ochiwar (talk) 08:37, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
 * delete Interestingly, when I looked for this in GBooks I found an American mention from 1888 which apparently wasn't picked up by anyone else, as all hits for it are the same text. However The Zalmanov version of this is sourced only to "his" website and gets no book hits, and given that he supposedly died in Paris a long time back, I would expect these if this were legit. As it is I think it's a medical hoax which we shouldn't be repeating on the basis of one website's testimony. Mangoe (talk) 13:43, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

 * delete The part of this which is about Turpentine is true, but I'm not sure it says anything new about it. The part about Zalmanov seems either an advert or a hoax, hence to be deleted. Chiswick Chap (talk) 18:28, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Neutral This sounds like a LUXURIOUS treatment. I hate to see an article like this go. BlueSalix (talk) 21:34, 24 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per above commentary. Uncited, poorly written, and of questional notability. If preserve, then merge to Turpentine and replace with reliable sources.--LT910001 (talk) 01:56, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
