Why your fingernail leaves a mark on your leg when you press hard

It is a answer to a question, and doesn't have valuable encyclopaedic material. It has no references. EBE123 talkContribs 22:53, 27 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - Per WP:NOTGUIDE. Nimuaq (talk) 23:10, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Requested Speedy Deletion - Don't see why it won't be. CycloneGU (talk) 23:26, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Unreferenced, and not a notable topic for an encyclopedia article. Cullen328 (talk) 23:28, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment – A serious problem is the article title, which is a totally implausible search term. Why not the mark left by a toenail on one's chin? Does it have to be a keratin nail? I'm sure you can get the same effect with a hard-plastic plectrum. Even more severely problematic is the fact that the content is not verifiable from citations of reliable sources. Nevertheless, I would expect this phenomenon to have been researched and described in the medical literature, so it is not necessarily completely unencyclopedic. (I don't see anything like this in List of cutaneous conditions or Cutaneous conditions; these appear to describe generally more lasting conditions; but wheals, mentioned in the latter, are typically also not long-lasting.) --Lambiam 23:32, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete. Okay, now this would be the correct implementation of WP:IAR at great benefit to the project as a whole.   coccyx bloccyx  (toccyx)  21:11, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree, but my speedy delete request was first completed, then reversed. CycloneGU (talk) 22:43, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I know that WTF? is not a valid deletion rationale, but sometimes it seems like the only appropriate reaction. --MelanieN (talk) 02:37, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete As above. If wtf? is not a valid reason for deletion, it ought to be. --Thepm (talk) 10:33, 4 May 2011 (UTC)
