[edit] Big dog syndrome

Big dog syndrome (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Disputed prod by creator, prod supported by one other editor (see history). No ghits, no sources, no evidence of notability of this neologism, could very well be a hoax. NickPenguin(contribs) 21:39, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete. Not notable, few relevant Google hits, and the ones that Google does hit are often at odds with the claims of the article. Original author has a history of making up "syndromes." - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 03:09, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
    • Update: The original author has since been blocked indefinitely for vandalism and creating inappropriate pages. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 03:39, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
  • I'd have to decline a speedy - there are plenty of Google hits for big+dog+syndrome (although nothing reliable in the first 10). ➨ ЯEDVEЯS looks at danger and laughs his head off 13:22, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete, without prejudice. If this really is something veterinarians have discussed, it ought not to be impossible to find sources for it. It might remotely also support an article about this being a common trope or motif in comedy scenes. But this article seems too speculative as is. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 14:18, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete I can't find any notable support. The phrase exists, not surprisingly, but 68 g-hits are all I find, and most seem to be coined on the spot as needed. Tim Ross (talk) 00:16, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
