[edit] Mackballing

I wonder whether saying: "People behaving as morons are usually not notable enough to merit a Wikipedia article" would be considered a personal attack or not :) Sarg 21:35, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Delete unverifiable. DoubleBlue (Talk) 22:07, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Likely hoax, joke, or attack page. Someone's grandmother doing combinations of illicit drugs? The presence of the photo makes it look even more like an attack on the subject of the photo. (Kill the photo, as well.) AиDя01DTALKEMAIL 22:10, Jun 3, 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. And for God's sake, don't try this! Just look at the photo! Eixo 22:19, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete joke/hoax. And they claim to have coined the term last Tuesday... --Etacar11 23:33, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Don't Delete. This site does have some good information, such as the fact that 15mg of this drug is the normal dosage, and that mackballing has become the popular term for the use of heroin and so-called "magic mushrooms" in combination. The site is obviously somewhat of a gag/hoax, but these parts should be changed, while the good information about Mackballing should be kept in tact and added onto by other knowledgable users.
  • Add some verifiable information about this specific practice, then. (How does an illicit drug have a "normal" dosage?) AиDя01DTALKEMAIL 05:18, Jun 4, 2005 (UTC)
    • Delete hoax/attack, also please keep in mind that the supposed normal dosage found on this page was writted by some hoaxsters who are liable not to have any medical expertise and thus should not be trusted nor kept on wikipedia. -CunningLinguist 07:39, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Comment: I reverted Honshuzen's version of the article. Please, provide some verifiable sources for the information as AиDя01D said and then we will discuss if it's worth keeping. Sarg 08:27, 4 Jun 2005 (UTC)
