[edit] Anomalous girls
urban legend translated from http://www.trastorno.masalla.net/ seems a fake. the wiki spanish article was written by the same user , no other reference found .
The same user also created Sadorexia also listed for afd (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sadorexia) the term should came from german dünneluder 28suspicious google hits
Consider for deletion also the redirects Dünneluder and Skinnies -Melaen 15:00, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- deletethe word dünneluder is no existing german word! no google hits beyond the wikipedia stuff. anyway, lack of verification, no sources ... very strange. --Enfiladissa 15:35, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

- Just to clarify, for those who may not know: just because something is an "urban legend" or a "hoax" or otherwise untrue doesn't mean that the untruth is automatically unencyclopedic. We have, in fact, a whole category for hoaxes, Category:Hoaxes. This "urban legend" of the "anomalous girls" might be encyclopedic -- but of course, only if it really is an actual belief found "in the wild". I'd actually look very carefully for evidence that this urban legend exists; it sounds bizarre and odd but so do the beliefs of Otherkin. If no evidence turns up, however, delete. -- Antaeus Feldspar 23:57, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
- delete. Could be kept as a hoax if sufficient notability is proven, but it doesn't look like that. --Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 14:03, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
