[edit] Chronohabituation
Unreferenced entry on a disease. Author contested prod, but the fact that the only information on Google says that it isn't real shows that this article is probably a hoax. BassoProfundo 19:50, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Delete - probable hoax —Travistalk 19:55, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete as hoax. WebMD (among others) has no articles on topic.--Ispy1981 20:03, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- Three lonely little Google hits. I dunno about a hoax, but maybe a protologism, or just something someone thinks sounds cool as a name for a strange sleep phenomena, one of the two... Delete Tony Fox (arf!) review? 20:04, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. If this is all that turns up, I doubt the disease is real.-Wafulz 20:11, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
Article describes a "sleep phenomenon", not a disease. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.225.200.43 (talk) 14:13, 16 July 2007

- Comment. You say [toʊ'meɪ.to], I say [toʊ'mɑ.to]. What really matters is that the article has no references. BassoProfundo 20:28, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Delete- probably hoax. In addition to non-scientific google hits, I happen to know a scientist who studies sleep/wake cycles. I realize we can't appeal to experts on here, but there's no offline experts who can confirm the existence of this phenomenon either. Eliz81 20:18, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- Strong Delete Hoax. - superβεεcat 20:24, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- Strong delete. It sounds like somebody just put a name to something a number of people I know do, which makes this not a hoax, but a neologism. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 23:02, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Zero hits on Medline suggest not medically used for the sleep disorder described. Espresso Addict 04:43, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete with great gnashing of teeth. In contrast to the frequent AFD misuse of original research to mean {{unreferenced}}, this is most definitely research of the very original kind. Sleep topics are better served by the articles we have including parasomnia, shift work sleep disorder, and circadian rhythms among others. --Dhartung | Talk 05:13, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
