[edit] Elementism

Contested PROD. Unsourced article about a religion created in the 80's whose notability is questionable at best. Delete. Blanchardb-^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}-timed 01:42, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

• Delete religioncruft. JuJube (talk) 01:49, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
• Notability isn't even the issue. I can find no sources whatsoever — books, web pages, news articles, journal articles — that document any such religion. The article appears to be citing two books as sources. But I cannot find any books by those titles, either. (The citations, if they really are such, don't give author, year of publication, publisher, or ISBN.) This is unverifiable. Delete. Uncle G (talk) 01:58, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. If by "in the 80's" we mean the 1800s, then elementism was a theory in visual perception. There is absolutely no evidence that it has ever referred to a religion prophesying a canine uprising, though. Zetawoof_(ζ) 03:00, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. Unverifiable. Pburka (talk) 03:45, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. and Uncle G. This was speedied A1 yesterday, but it has grown a bit. The "canine uprising in 2012" bit makes it seem like a hoax. JohnCD (talk) 13:28, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete, nonnotable and likely a hoax. NawlinWiki (*talk) 19:43, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete: likely WP:HOAX. Mh29255 (talk) 22:26, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. I tagged this with a PROD and strongly agree that it has all the earmarks of a silly hoax. Accounting4Taste:talk 04:12, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. Unverifiable at best, a hoax at worst. --Ubardak (talk) 04:20, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
