[edit] Amychophobia

del. Nonnotable dicdef: "fear of being scratched". the only reference provided is from a supposedlyreputable merck website, but there is one catch: the corresponding page contains a disclaimer " Merck & Co., Inc. is not responsible for this content." The rest is lists of varuios phobias that swarm internet lately and inscrupulous psych websites which offer to treat you from prostitute phobia for only 1,275, see -phob-#Phobia lists. `'mikka (t) 17:44, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

• Delete. I'm afraid I was the one who introduced this link, trying to replace an even worse one. But the fact that that was the best I could find should have made me run to this place immediately :) --JoanneB 18:03, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
• Comment: Dorland's is a fairly reputable dictionary; however the term isn't listed in my copy of Mosby's Medical, Nursing and Allied Health Dictionary which at nearly 2000pp contains most medical terminology of significance. Espresso Addict 18:32, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
