[edit] The_Raven_(magic_trick)

Prod removed, so I'm listing it here. I'm unsure of precedent regarding magic tricks, but I don't see any evidence that this trick is notable, and Wikipedia is not a how-to guide. The article HAS been cleaned up since I prodded it, but I still don't think it passes notability tests. --Darksun 19:12, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

• Delete not a how to. Add it to List of magic tricks, unless it was already there and disappeared. :) Or, seriously, does anyone know if there is a MagicWiki? It could go there, but not in an encyclopedia. — MrDolomite | Talk 04:20, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

• Delete - no reliable sources cited. I haven't found any either. Wickethewok 07:51, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
• Comment - there is a whole category of Magic tricks. Do what you will. Outriggr 07:55, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
  • That there is a category of articles on magic tricks is no justification for including articles that are unverifiable. Wickethewok has asserted that the article is unverifiable, with the article citing no sources and no sources locatable. Your sole counterargument is to make the article verifiable. Please cite sources. Uncle G 10:25, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
