[edit] Celtic Affluenza

Celtic Affluenza (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) (delete) – (View log)

Article fails WP:NN, WP:VER, WP:OR, and several other basic guidelines. Specifically:

  • It provides absolutely no sources to support the use of the term "Celtic Affluenza" in the purported context.
  • Even if it did, the notability of the term/concept is unasserted, and is flagged as such for several months.
  • A Google search returns ZERO results confirming the use of the term in any context. (All search hits are for this Wikipedia page and mirrors).
  • The article appears purely as Original Research in "support" of a similarly problematic Spam article - also flagged for AfD.
  • etc.
