[edit] Photogeno

Photogeno (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Odd combination of original research, insufficient references, confusing terminology, image lifted from another website (see "red algae" link on the MIT page) without attribution and has a history of strange edits. Tried to WP:AGF as long as possible, but I think this may be a hoax. AlphaEta 01:41, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete per nom. Others unable to verify even the existance of the listed sources, nevermind whether they actually support this thing. Neither the topic itself nor the page's prime editor (==self-professed researcher in the field, Dr. Mandellez) give any relevant google hits. Page creator has not provided viable sources despite several requests. We could be generous and say it's OR, but still...RS-or-die time. DMacks 01:49, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Edit conflict. Delete as hoax. Only "source" containing relevant word in title gets zero ghits, there seem to be no relevant sources online, and photogeni is an impossible plural of photogeno in either Greek or Latin. Deor 01:53, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, hoax. Unless valid sources can be provided, at which time I will reconsider my opinion. Corvus cornix 02:55, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Snow delete Hoax. Sounds like someone took the algae page, removed a lot of crap, and passed it off in the 1st person no less. I thought that was an image of red algae on there. Whsitchy 21:10, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
